People were asking about sessions and pub stuff some time back before all this sillyness about sheep and damsels started so here's the latest plans.

There'll be the usual sessions at the Nook all over the weekend augmented on Saturday night when Free Sandwiches will be playing outside. It is likely that young, local group Off the Rails will also be there at some point.

There'll be a Folk Club on Friday and Saturday's special afternoon recording session of local traditional songs and singers at the Bridge overseen by Ray Padgett and friends from Barnsley Folk Club. On Saturday evening Dave Cowan will be leading the singing in the bar once everybody has been fed - starting about 9.00.

The excellent upstairs room at the White Hart will be the location for an afternoon of music from three Sheffield acts - Silverwheel, Paul Pearson and Treebeard on Saturday. On Saturday night we will celebrate the songs of Jake Thackray with the Jake Thackray Experience, a very talented group of singers coming from all corners of the country to entertain us.

The Postcard will have 'turns' on Friday night (Spotlight Kid), Saturday afternoon (Crinkly Sox - who might let you join in as well) and Bay of Biscuits on Saturday night. If there are people who want to have an Irish session the space will be there on Sunday afternoon.

Hervey's Bar is available all weekend for anyone who wants to go for a sing. Mostly it will be informal but Dave Cowan will be in charge on Saturday afternoon.

The Elephant and Castle is also available all weekend for anyone who wants to go to sing or play will be made welcome This might be just the place for George to take up residence when he's not busy doing something else as he tested them out last year.

The Victoria, a little further out of town towards Holmbridge, is also keen to be involved and would welcome anyone who wants to go there.

Sorry for the sidetracking,Cath.

You certainly can.
It's the Yorkshire Garland Group who have been established to collate, gather and preserve Yorkshire song in a number of up to date accessible formats including the internet - I quote from the information that Ray has given me.
Typical traditional singers who represent the style are/were Arthur Howard, Will Noble and John Cocking and Frank Hinchliffe and his son Roger.
Singers from the Sheffield area have already been invited and singers who have anything to offer or who would like to take part or be in the audience should me on holmfirthfolk@btinternet.com or contact Ray Padgett, who is co-ordinating for the Yorkshire Garland group on 01226 284927.
Hope that helps.

I've just had a look at the Holmfirth Festival of Folk web site because I was wanting to know when the ceilidhs are - It says there's one on Saturday morning but I can't believe that! Surely that can't be right?

There's usually a family one on Sunday but there's no mention of that either.
Also there's no phone or email contact details where I can get in touch so can anyone on here help please?

This is I think on Saturday, I dont know where the Market Hall is:

I think you should be aware that the Civic, to my knowledge has not been booked and that this is the Holmfirth Festival of Folk and NOT the usual

Holmfirth Market Hall is between the Library and Hollowgate - on two levels, next to a car park (top level) and close to the river (opp chippy) on the lower level. I believe there was a ceilidh there last year.

A Saturday Night Whitby Endeavour type sessions in the Elephant sound like a great idea to me. We had a lot of fun in there the year before last. I blame Raggyarse, Dave O Dee Day, Dozy Derrick and a few more miscreants. I do remember the regulars in the Elephant who kept insisting on buying rounds of drinks for the Musicians. However my memory is a bit hazy I can't remember if we went on strike to stop Raggyarse singing the Flower of Scotland or to get someone to buy a round of drinks so that we would let him sing it. So put the word out and lets try and recreate the atmosphere. Anyone else's is up for the Elephant Saturday night? I get Ken Stocks down there and Marie Blackburn. How about you Mando Man are you coming over with Angi?

I have noticed that on your website you have a picture that shows the Doonans, however I am slightly puzzled as to why John is included in the group as to the best of my knowledge he is no longer alive. If I am correct and he is singing with the Celestial Seraphic Choir couldn't someone provide a more recent picture? Oh but what a coup, if another picture is to be believed that you have all five Strawbs - yes, all five singers I've counted them - they all appear in a picture on your website or is this another heavenly oversight.

By the way I really do think you should be congratulated for this new venture. I wish you well.

I hope you won't be too disappointed, Rupert, but even we haven't been able to raise John Doonan from the grave but the rest of the 'family' will do him proud I'm sure.

Also the three Acoustic Stawbs who will be appearing will amply fill the Picturedrome.

Let's hope that the web site will soon be sorted but I'll try to keep things informative on this forum without any recourse to sheep, wonderwoman or any other such tomfoolery!

Daring, dashing, bold johnny Spitfire,
