I'm sure I posted about this a few months ago but I'm blowed if I can find the post.

Lewes Saturday Folk Club Workshop No 203
Benny Graham , Barrie & Ingrid Temple :
NORTH-EAST SONGS WORKSHOP
Places £30
Saturday 28 March 2015
10.45 a.m.- 4.45 p.m.
Royal Oak, Station Street, Lewes BN7 2DA UK
Benny (http://www.bennygraham.com/start.htm) is a magnificent singer & melodeon player with a huge knowledge of Newcastle's vigorous singing tradition & theatrical connections. Barrie & Ingrid (http://barrieandingrid.co.uk/) are fine harmony singers. Barrie writes songs in traditional style, but in a recognisable voice of his own. The workshop will cover a brief history of North-East songs & songwriters, showing how the songs reflected the North-East people & their way of life. You'll be actively encouraged to (1) learn some lesser-known North-East songs & sing them in a way you never imagined, (2) play some North-East tunes, (3) Sing & smile & do (1) & (2) - all at the same time! Singers & players welcome.

The three of them have produced an excellent booklet of songs and tunes to be used at the workshop, which will be valuable long after it.

We still have places for the workshop and tickets for the evening. If you'd like to come, email me on valmaigoodyear[at]aol[dot] com and bring the right money in cash on the day. We're at the Royal Oak in Station Street rather than at our usual home, the Elephant & Castle.
