Sorry if this is stating the obvious but we (Motto: “We never close”) need to suspend everyone’s enjoyment in the interests of everyone. Sad, but the only responsible thing to do.
BUT we musicians are planning to get together over the internet (using ‘Zoom’) to practise and share tunes … so watch for smaller videos from individual performers in the near future
March started for Folk Music at the Beach with a loud roar – from the Hollyburn House Band, The Irish Wakers, and Tim Readman! All to open the month of St. Patrick in fine style. We just made it under the wire – beating the clamp-down on social gatherings by just a few days (HSC’s Paddy’s Day party was cancelled a week later due to the corona virus threat.) Take a look at the “2-Minute-Taster” for some of the fine fiddling and singing that were enjoyed by all.
February saw the return to Folk-Music-At-The-Beach of Joe Charron (ably assisted by Stu MacDonald, Don Fraser and Michael Burnyeat) plus the talented songwriter, Chris Ronald. High quality music and high energy performances made sure the winter-blahs were a long distance from the sailing club!
