Go straight to current date

The New Fo'c'sle Music Club has reverted to its "also known as" name of Fo'c'sle Folk Club from the 26 June 98 AGM. No change of format or policy is involved, but it was felt to be easier for newcomers to find us and to decide what we are. The Club continues to welcome a wide range of music, poetry and stories.

More details and often pictures of the individual artistes, may be found by clicking on the links for the separate months in the summary listing here as soon as they are activated.
