A gig on Friday 21st November. The event starts at 19:45.
Back in March of 2022, we were due to welcome PETER KNIGHT & JOHN SPIERS, but that pesky covid intervened. We’re delighted to say we’ve finally managed to find a date to reschedule, and they’ll be with us on Friday 21 November. 'Folk a-listers’, ‘folk royalty’ and ‘folk icons' are terms frequently applied to both Peter and John, but what it means in reality is that they bring the best of traditional music to any stage they play. The exquisite explorations of the liminal space that exists between traditional and classical music is what makes the music so compelling and beguiling, ultimately rendering genres irrelevant.
Getting us underway will be FLY YETI FLY, an alt-folk duo whose enchanting harmonies, warm instrumentation and heartfelt storytelling weave songs about connection and community. Blending folk, roots and Americana influences, their music is both uplifting and deeply moving. This concert will be live-streamed in partnership with LIVE TO YOUR LIVING ROOM.
The concert will take place at CHRIST CHURCH DOWNEND as usual, and seating is unreserved. Tickets are £14 in advance (£16 on the door) and are available online HERE, and from MELANIE’S KITCHEN in Downend. Please note that Melanie's Kitchen can only take cash payments. There is also the option to buy a season ticket for all four concerts for £50, which saves a few pounds as well as booking fees. All tickets are non-refundable. There will be a full bar at all concerts, as well as a prize draw, all proceeds of which go towards booking our support artists. Doors open at 7.00pm for a 7.45pm start.
Terms & Conditions: All tickets are non-transferable. Please note that we operate a strict no-returns policy. Downend Folk & Roots is a "listening venue". Noisy patrons may be ejected from the premises. The organisers reserve the right to ask latecomers to wait for a suitable break in the performance before taking their seats. Our events are photographed and your image may be used online. If you would rather it was not, please speak to a team member when you arrive. By purchasing tickets, you agree to these terms and conditions.
Entry requirements: no age restrictions (under 18s to be accompanied by an adult over 21yrs, 1:1 ratio)
