www.sadfolk.co.uk Subscribe or email via website. The Somerset and Dorset Folk Diary (or SaDFolk) is based around a weekly email service, listing ‘folk’ events in Somerset and Dorset.

THE ACOUSTIC CALENDARBristol, Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Glos, Hampshire, Somerset, Wilts
The monthly calendar of folk clubs, singarounds, acoustic sessions & open mics: all about DIY music (not concerts, gigs, ceilidhs, etc). Its purpose is to keep you informed of all the places where you can take your voice and/or instrument and join in or do your own thing. It has two parts: (1) monthly Calendar of events; (2) alphabetical Venues List, giving a fuller description & contact details for each venue. Each part can be downloaded in pdf format. The Calendar can also be downloaded in a Word version so you can customise it according to your local requirements. If you’d like my more-or-less twice monthly Acoustic Calendar Updates delivered to your inbox, let me know, using the contact form on the website. ® Tony Watts, http://sanchobramble.weebly.com |
