Last chance to experience Cloudstreet in the North-West of England until 2010.

Cloudstreet are a phenomenal Australian duo - Nicole and John (with added support this time with Rachel on cello and harmonies). They perform a variety of material from traditional on through with scintillating harmonies and tremendous energy.

Sunday 10 August 2008 - 7.30pm
Alison Arms Folk, Alison Arms, Preston Road, Coppull PR7 5DU
(just 2 miles from M6 jct 27)
tickets £8 on the door or from web site.
support from the fabulous Saggy Bottom Girls

Any questions call Simon on 07815 289323.

Nobody fancy a trip to visit the wild country just North of Wigan, between Manchester and Liverpool?

You've not got long to wait, I think they are back by the end of the month.

Pity the nearest Mudcatter who is a Cloudstreet fan is in Oz :-(

Best folk act in the world IMHO, and not just because John plays the same make of guitar as I do, only he is lot better at it.

Cloudstreet put on a wonderful show in the very nice venue at Belper last month. Unless there is a last minute change, it is Rebecca on cello and additional vocal.

not that Cloudstreet-the-duo is not perfect as they are, but Rebecca & her cello adds to the perfection!

I must remember its Rebecca before tomorrow, I wonder where I got the other name from. They'll probably call me Sam or Susan or something all evening now.

Too late to fly from Australia of USA in the sub-sonic age. But you can still make it from Lancashire, Cheshire, Liverpool and Manchester.
