The Palmerston North Folk Music club meets every Friday night at 8pm, with a complimentary supper around 9pm.

On concert nights guest performers, national or international, perform for us.
On non-concert nights there is a theme (see the programme) and everyone who comes along has the chance to perform (or request) a piece of music related to the theme, whether as a solo, as a small group, or with everyone. If you don't feel like performing yourself, then you are welcome to come along, sit back, and enjoy the music! Sometime after supper there's the opportunity for a general jam session.

CONCERTS COMING UP...

FEBRUARY 22nd 
RAMBLIN' ASH & DENNIS DUIGAN
  You might find Ramblin' Ash Constance pickin' old country songs or playing at a crowded blues bar somewhere - with a voice like birdsong and the rollicking, rough and tumble of a true traveller she will break your heart, then charm your socks off and leave you longing for a life on the road.
  From sleepy country areas to bustling city bars you can find Dennis twangin' and sangin' heartfelt songs of broken love, hardship and sorrow. He has dug up and dusted off a selection of old-timey, pre-war blues, and mountain folk songs. Famous for fingerstyle blues, flatpicked guitar, clawhammer banjo and bluegrass mandolin

PAUL WALKER & KAREN PFEIFFER

  With their unique onstage-chemistry and their widely praised harmonies, the Anglo-German duo Paul Walker & Karen Pfeiffer entertain and engage thier audiences "in a likeable, humurous style". Combining their  original materila with a fine choice of folk favourites Paul & Karen craft a show of "songs with groove and goosebumps guaranteed", as the Stuttgart press put it recently.

  Karen's voice, clear and yet so powerful, leaves audiences mesmerised. She also adds with alto recorder, tin whistle and percussive instruments to Paul's vocal and individual guitar style.
