There have been a lot of enquires about the gig. Thank you! Please let the folk club know if you would like to be put on their reservations list at info@leithfolkclub.com (no advance tickets are available.) The gig is at the old Victoria Primary school now called Heart of Newhaven EH6 4HY. It is right opposite the last tram stop on Newhaven Main Street and starts at 8pm! Tickets are £12.
 
We are really looking forward to playing there again, and we’re delighted that we’ll have the wonderful Hugh Kelly and Jo Jeffries on double bass and fiddle respectively!
 
Here’s a pic of us supporting The Proclaimers not so very long ago!! It should whet your appetite folks!
