-
Anyone can have a go – songs, tunes, dances, readings or any other performance in reasonably good taste – and there is often a theme for the evening.
-
Mega-stars are always welcome, but so are complete novices, and all performers get the same fee (£0).

A new a cappella touring show combine beautiful close harmony singing and quirky songwriting, with much laughter and even improvised singing sessions, the Pocket Choral Society features four experienced singers blending into one. Singing unamplified the quartet bring their own songs and new arrangements of some from other songwriters such as Lennon and McCartney, Lou Reed and Tom Waits.
As many of you will know we lost a real stalwart of the Coventry & Warwickshire folk scene Stephen Boyer recently, Steve along with Steve Redshaw was due to do a feature/showcase spot at Bedworth Folk Clubs Singers Night in April (26th) as Steve2 so we are instead going ahead with a “Remembering Steve Boyer” evening which will feature pre-booked floor spots first half and Steve Redshaw leading a 45 minute session dedicated to Stephen Boyer in the second half.
We will be trying to raise a bit of dosh for a favourite charity of Steve’s on the evening so it will be the usual FREE admission and raffle (yes we would love raffle donations) with a Bank Notes collection for charity. If you want a spot PM us asap as I am sure there will be quite a demand for spots
