CANCELLED - Eleven Magpies - Folk at the New Room at John Wesley’s New Room
See event details

A gig held at John Wesley’s New Room on Thursday 18th July. The event starts at 19:30.


Due to artist illness, this gig has been postponed to early 2025. More information to follow.


Led by Bristol-based composer, multi-instrumentalist and music director Ian Ross (Wise Children, Kneehigh), the band features Alex Vann (Spiro, Three Cane Whale), Elizabeth Westcott (Yesterday’s Camel) and James Gow (Jow).

Together, they chart a whirling journey of plucked and bowed strings, through humorous miniatures and sorrowful madrigal-esque beauty, then up into unexpected flights that come to land in moments of serene stillness.

An evening of acoustic music by candlelight inspired by theatrical travels and reflections on grief, faith and joy.

Bar open from 6pm for informal music session - bring your instrument and play some folk tunes.

Tickets £14 advance / £16 door on the door

Entry requirements: no age restrictions
