MUSICAL MARCH!! TUESDAY 17 MARCH 2026 Johnny Campbell Johnny Campbell is a multidisciplinary Folk musician based in Yorkshire. He focuses on promoting the radical history of Northern English working class struggles and celebrations in original and traditional song. Taking inspiration from traditional material, as well as self-penned songs, he explores what it means to be human today, as well as looking back at our history. Through songs, Johnny explores the symbiotic connections between the land, the music, the stories and the history that has shaped northern identity. Alongside his music-making, Johnny's knowledge of radical histories, landscape and geography have earned him a freelance writing role with Britain's most popular walking magazine Country Walking as well as praise from author Nick Hayes, a feature on BBC Radio 4 'Open Country' and an episode of the award-winning Folk on Foot podcast. TUESDAY 24 MARCH 2026 Kathryn Roberts & Sean Lakeman Duos come and go, but few nurture and refine their craft with such dedication and originality as Kathryn Roberts and Sean Lakeman. Roberts and Lakeman have forged a creative bond that is as enduring as it is inspiring. Their 30 year journey together - from young trailblazers in the 1990s folk supergroup Equation to one of Britain's most admired and decorated folk duos - stands as a testament to their artistry, authenticity, and masterful musicianship. Their contribution to the British folk landscape has not gone unnoticed. Kathryn and Sean have twice been named 'Best Duo' at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, in addition to accolades from Spiral Earth and Fatea Magazine. Their live shows - brimming with charm, wit, and musical mastery - have earned them a devoted following and a reputation as a cornerstone act of the British folk and acoustic scene.

PAM & ALAN COLLS
| Founders of the Dartford Folk Club, Pam and Alan Colls ran the Club together for over 40 years, booking an amazing variety of artists within the Folk genre. Sadly both Pam and Alan have passed away but, at our 50th Birthday celebrations in October 2023, the team, guests and audience raised a glass to remember their friendship, achievements and amazing contributions to the music world. The Dartford Folk Club is now managed by a small team of original members in memory of and as a legacy to Pam & Alan's love for music.
