Yet again our lineup artists gave us a excellent evening of music. Headlining were Boodle who gave us a range of songs influenced by blues, folk, jazz, jump jive, with a nod to country too. We loved joining in with 'Handy Man'. We were also lucky enough to welcome back to the club Graham Carter. Everyone enjoyed singing along a mix of traditional folk, blues, shanties, & Americana. Especially apt was 'Bushes & Briars' that Graham learnt from the singing of Nick Dow some years ago here at Wimborne Minster Folk Festival. Great support came from Steve Perring, who included several self-penned songs & jigs, Robert Greenwell who's varied set finished with his lovely own poem for nature & science. We also enjoyed the month of May set from Kitty Vernon, which included two traditional May songs from Padstow & Helston. As always our evening was opened by our talented MC Bill Hesp. Thanks you to everyone for your music, & your company in the audience. Thanks to the late May Bank Holiday, we'll not be returning until 8th June.
