"Bristol’s own Rachael Dadd leads her band further down the jazz rabbit hole with a set of brand new featherlight songs – with all donations going to the Hebron International Resource Network. Plus there’s instrumental folk trio Wisp spinning shimmering instrumentals from mandolin, guitar and trumpet, and Oak Choir’s sky-reaching community singalongs."

A gig held at Bristol Folk House on Friday 18th July. The event starts at 20:00.


Join us for an evening of music to raise much needed funds for Palestine.

Bristol musician Rachael Dadd will be airing entirely new material with her band comprised of Rob Pemberton on drums, Alex Heane on bass and Greg Sterland on sax. Foraying a little further into the forest of jazz with moments of improvisation, expect something light, brave, raw and full of heart.

Our friends Wisp will be bringing a delightful serving of instrumental folk with mandolin, guitar and trumpet.

Oak Choir is the epic new community choir lead by Bristol musician Rachael Dadd. Oak stands for Of All Kin and is run with an ethos of inclusivity and diversity, where joy and well being are held above perfection. The songs written by Rachael celebrate nature and community. They are rich and grounding like roots and earth while simultaneously stretching open wide to the sky and the stars.

All donations will go to the Hebron International Resource Network, an organisation that supports communities facing the effects of occupation in the West Bank.
