Anyone know where there are music sessions in Cornwall?
Or a website giving info on them? Sessions are difficult to find!
Preferably English or mixed!
Cheers

Cornwall is a big place! where in Cornwall were you hoping to find sessions? North, Middle or south?
In North Cornwall you could pm me and we could arrange something, I have several folkie friends who are keen to sesh at any time! Also contact Hobgoblin at Wadebridge, the chap there may be able to enlighten you
Further down, contact local folk club leaders, who usually know whats happening in their neck of the woods. See Folknews Kernow on google for Folk Clubs and they should have contact numbers of people who know whats on in their locality.
Hope that helps
Cheers, Lucy

There's an excellent bluegrass/Old Time session at a pub in Paul every tuesday night. Can't remember the name of the pub, but there can't be many! Cornwall is quite rich in b/ot, and the folk in the session know where it's all at.

I've just come back from Penzance, and there was a Sunday Open Mic night at The Dock (Quay Street). Nice place to stay, too. Wheal Dream near Helston meets on Sunday night 8 p.m.

Apparently there's a singers' night, Fridays, at the Bodmin folk club: 8.15 pm at the Barley Sheaf, Lower Bore Street, Bodmin. Also Friday, the Truro Troyle club meets at the Globe, River Street, Truro.

And I was referred to www.folknewskernow.co.uk/ as a good source of info.

If Hawker organises a session for you we'll come up.
