Culverake: Debut Album 2025 Help us launch our debut album of unaccompanied harmony singing.

My trio Culverake are hoping to go into the studio to make our debut album.
But we can only do it with your help. Our Kickstarter campaign ends soon and we’ve still got a fair way to go before we reach our goal.

Bluesky friends, please share this far and wide.

We're on The Folk Club, do have a listen (it's 231 though, not 230 😆)

Thanks for the great feature Stuart!

This Tuesday, 17th Dec! Come along to Holy Trinity Church in Stevenage for a lovely evening of Christmas carols, music, readings & folk songs (some familiar, others probably less so). It's all free and starts at 7.30pm.

Sadly for us, the landlords of the March Hare have decided to retire earlier than planned, so Carols at The Hare on 16/12 has been cancelled. We wish John and Janice a very happy retirement.
However, we still have the Folk Carol Service in Stevenage on 17/12, so come and sing! #folkmusic #carols🎄🎶

Bring your singing voices to an evening of folky carols, songs, tunes & readings at Holy Trinity Church, Stevenage on Tues 17th Dec. We're performing Christmas songs, & musicians from #DuntonFolk & #LetchworthMorris are leading community singing - and it's all free!

Is it too early to talk about Christmas? The Barrellers will be singing at Carols at The Hare, at the March Hare public house, Dunton, Beds, on Monday 16th December, 8.00pm.
It's a lovely Christmassy session of seasonal folk songs, carols & music, so come and join us!

Great list John, and growing all the time! Would you consider adding us please?

I’m still adding to this starter pack for people interested in folk & traditional music in the UK and beyond … please let me know if you can think of any accounts of artists, organisations or specialist interest groups I’ve missed.

Didn't think it would take you long! Great gig in Aylesbury on Sunday BTW 🎶

Hi, lovely to be here! We’re Jack in a Barrel from Bedfordshire. We sing a mix of traditional and modern folk songs, often in six-part harmony, and we drink gin.
