What's On Sunday 10th December in Bristol

Events on Sunday 10th December

“A cinematic folk tale/documentary set in England's south east, of an adventurous and blessed young singer, whose heart is tragically broken and her singing voice completely and suddenly eludes her, she is unable to perform on stage again and ends up 'down' the Job Center, but all is not lost.”
From: THE BALLAD OF SHIRLEY COLLINS + Talk

“Two key films from deep archive. Chosen and introduced by Scottish singer and songwriter Alasdair Roberts and French folk singing trio Tartine de Clous who are in residence at The Cube this weekend. 'The Summer Walkers' focuses on the hard working life, culture, play and mirth of travelling people from Scotland, while 'Travelling For A Living' has at it's heart the amazing English folk group The Watersons.”

“If you want to hear real Old Time music you have to go to the source, and this threesome from West Virginia are as close as you’ll get. Think wailing fiddle, shuffling banjo and four-to-the-floor geetar, think backwoods cabins and moonshine, think ‘yee-hah’. Yup, you got it!”

“SORRY EVERYONE BUT MOST OF THE BAND ARE SNOWED IN OVER IN HERTFORDSHIRE SO WE'VE HAD TO CANCEL THIS SHOW. Join one of the UKs longest running Cajun, Zydeco and Swamp Rock bands at Bristols fantastic live music venue The Golden Lion for a drunken Sunday afternoon of foot stompin' fun. The Rosellys' fiddler has been playing with the Playboys for nearly 28 years - this will be an afternoon to remember, or drunkenly forget!!! Free entry.”

“Jazz pianist Andrew Christie and his long-established quartet introduce cool and contemporary music from their latest album ‘Difference and Repetition’. The band’s distinctive sound comes from the rich sonic combination of Andrew’s piano with Sarah Moody’s cello, Jon Short’s double bass and the supple drumming of Greg White. ‘Difference and Repetition’ is a new collection of original compositions that seamlessly weaves modern jazz elements into an ambient, cinematic underscore.”
