Club meets on the 1st and 3rd Friday of each month
12.00 – 2.00
pm
Location
Room 752 Level 7
New
members are welcome to this club.
This
is very much a hands-on club, and our meeting format reflects this. Every member present gets to entertain the others by taking
it in turns to sing or play (or both). We often team up to form impromptu duos, trios etc as the fancy takes us. We have even
enjoyed the odd poetry recital! Relaxed music-making in a friendly atmosphere is what we do.
Our
members come from a fair range of musical background and this is reflected in the different songs, tunes and styles you’ll
hear. Instruments currently being played include guitar, ukulele, mandolin, whistle, harmonica, fiddle, autoharp, tenor banjo,
dobro, flute, melodica, mandolin banjo and even a cigar-box ukulele!
New
recruits are welcome, but bear in mind we have to cap overall membership levels to allow for two “rounds” of performance
per member at our 2 hour meetings. You can come along and try us first before deciding whether or not to join. Although most
members will sing a song or play an instrument, there is no pressure to do so. Members can just sit and enjoy the music if
they so wish.
