The Village Folk Club with Cath and Phil Tyler

18th February 2014 
Taurus Bar, 1 Canal Street (just five minutes walk from Piccadilly station) 
7.30pm doors open for 8pm start 
£8 full price / £6 for concessions 

Cath and Phil Tyler are raw and raucous in their approach to American and British folk songs and tunes - but manage sensitivity and fragility, too. We're not sure how they do it, but we love them and hope you will do on their first visit to The Village.

Check out their Facebook page, too.

"There's an earthiness and grittiness and a reality about this that I find personally incredibly appealing, the simplicity of the music is absolutely stunning." Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2.

Happy new year - and Ollie King!

Hello Village Folk Clubbers. We hope you've had a great festive period, with lots of carolling and figgy pudding. Happy new year!

To bring in the new year, we'll be welcoming Ollie King to the club on Tuesday January 21st. He's a fantastic young melodeon player originally from Cambridge but now resides in Folk Capital of the UK, Sheffield. He's guested on recordings by Megson and The Young 'Uns, and you can see him for a mere £8 (£6 concessions) in the centre of Manchester. Who'd have thought it? Tickets can be bought right here...

As ever, we welcome floor spots - of the song and tune variety - so please come on down and show off your new Christmas presents. Doors 7.30pm for an 8pm ish start, downstairs in Taurus bar.
