Yes, Mike Peach, singer, guitarist and all round excellent bloke, has died. He started the Anchor Folk Club in Byfleet, Surrey (UK) in 1995 and ran it for more than 25 years. It recently celebrated its 30th anniversary.
RIP Mike, we'll miss you. Condolences to Maureen and family.

I'm sorry to read this - I enjoyed my visits to the Anchor Folk Club although they were over 25 years ago and it's been a while since I last saw Mike at Chippenham folk festival. Deepest sympathies to Maureen and family.

I'm sorry to read this too. Anyone who can run a successful folk club for 25 years is a valuable member of our society! Quite an achievement! He will be missed. My condolences, as always, to all those who know and love him. RIP
