Sunday 4th August 16.45 - 19.45 CONCERT in the Club Tent, featuring some
of our Club regulars:-
NAOMI RANDALL When FRoots said back in 2014 that ‘Randall possesses a truly classic English voice – comparable with the very best’ they were not exaggerating. That ‘voice’ has continued to develop and when backed by her own very competent guitar work is truly unique.
TIM MELLOR is equally at home with Northumbrian smallpipes, guitar, melodeon or singing ‘acapella’. Most of his songs and tunes are based on traditional folk songs from the British Isles but include a few of his own compositions reflecting contemporary issues and themes.
FREE AGENTS have been entertaining together at Black Fen Open Stage evenings for the last year, developing into a duo with a pleasant mid-atlantic feel; Philip’s bluesy self penned songs complementing Mike’s gentler Americana classics. With mandolin and guitar they are also proficient and delightful performers of traditional tunes from both sides of the pond.
CAMBRIDGE AND WALKER formed in 2016 when they realised a mutual love of old songs and harmony singing. David Cambridge and Jenna Walker, accompanied by guitars and squeezeboxes, have performed extensively in East Anglia and have become firm favourites on the local scene with their sets being described as ‘exquisite’ and ‘stunning’. 2019 sees them adding their first self-penned songs to the mix of traditional and contemporary favourites and recording their first album later in the year.

* In addition to these super acts we will also be selecting three performers from our FLOWERGARDEN singarounds to perform a couple of songs (or tunes) in the concert.
If you would like to be considered, then do make yourself known to the MC in the Flowergarden sessions.
