*** TUESDAY 25th FEBRUARY 2020 *** we welcome Knight & Spiers as our guests! In the summer of 2016, the organisers of FolkEast Festival had the grand idea of pairing Peter and melodeon player extraordinaire, John Spiers (ex-Bellowhead) for a special 'one off' concert at that year's festival. In the event, it ended up being a genuine festival highlight, with no space to be found in the Marquee and people standing five deep in pouring rain. For a few minutes at the close of their performance, with a standing ovation and roars for more, it didn't seem as though the audience was going to let them go. As the MC commented, it was one of those occasions when people could say, "I was there". It was also clear that leaving matters there was not an option, and plans were made to record an album and undertake a country-wide tour during March 2018. "Peter Knight can spin the World on his Bow." - Sir Terry Pratchett John Spiers "A blend of elegant, rhythmic and virtuoso playing and easygoing folk club banter. A quiet triumph. - The Guardian ** We are delighted to welcome KNIGHT & SPIERS for the first time as a duo back to Dartford Folk Club!! ** | |||

PAM COLLS
It is four years since our very dear friend Pam Colls passed away. Co-founder of the Dartford Folk Club, with her husband Alan, they ran the Club together for over 40 years, booking an amazing variety of artists within the Folk genre. Alan has recently decided to take a back seat from running the club. The Dartford Folk Club continues to run as usual, with a small team of original members, in memory of and as a legacy to Pam's amazing love for music.
