    TOM KITCHING & GREN BARTLEY

    We are delighted to welcome Tom and Gren back to the club. Without doubt one of
    the brightest young acts on the folk scene today they play music from a remarkably
    broad range of sources. Their latest album, Boundary, crosses genres with a healthy
    disdain for arbitrary pigeon-holing of styles and traditions. From Leadbelly’s Cow Cow
    Yicky Yicky Yea
    , a true slice of cowboy styling, to Old Sir Simon the King, a song with a
    long traditional heritage behind it, via Morris tunes, folk ballads and Richard Thompson,
    there is something there for everyone.

    "The instruments spark, with the combination of the bright fiddle and the acclaimed finger
    picking style of Bartley giving a lovely flow to their music"

  • ISAMBARDE
    Friday 19th March 2010 - 8.00pm
    Doors open at 7.30pm - evening finishes at 10.30pm
    ISAMBARDE

    Isambarde, a one man two woman trio, offers: three voices , guitar, fiddle and oboe -
    an unusual combination and an effective one. Chris, Emily and Jude combine energy
    with superb musicianship, an undoubted flair for clever but sensitive arrangements,
    quality vocals, and engagingly self-deprecating sense of humour. The combination
    adds up to much more than the sum of the individual parts. Coventry based, the trio
    played their first local gig in April 2002. With a powerful blend of traditional songs
    and contemporary tunes they carry the English tradition forward into the 21st century.

    "Isambarde are a folk band with tremendous energy and enthusiasm. They are the
    unusual and winning combination of Chris's driving guitar, Emily's incisive fiddle
    playing and Jude's lyrical oboe coupled with great full on vocal harmonies. They
    play a great set and are an asset to any festival or folk club."
