*** A very warm welcome to all our members, friends and visitors ***


      DARTFORD FOLK CLUB IS A LIVE MUSIC VENUE PROMOTING MANY STYLES OF ACOUSTIC MUSIC.       
  




WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ON:


***     21st JANUARY 2025        Lizzy Hardingham     ***

Folk infused singer songwriter Lizzy Hardingham sings songs that drive straight to the heart, giving audiences a chance for genuine connection and empathy.
Lizzy is paving her way as a powerhouse performer with beautifully delivered songs, her wonderful voice grabbing the listener from the very first note
and holding on until the last. Think Christine Collister, Joni Mitchell, Sandy Denny and KT Tunstall all wrapped into one.

After appearing as a finalist in 2018's New Roots competition, Lizzy has gone from strength to strength. Her sensitively penned songs have been spun
on radio stations throughout the UK, across the pond and in Europe; with BBC Cambridgeshire heralding her as "A truly passionate and important voice."
The following year saw her storm the UK folk club and festival scene, including Cambridge Folk Festival, while in 2020 she captivated online audiences
with "a voice that could fill a stadium and the sensitivity to bring a room to attentive silence."

Lizzy Hardingham means business outside of performing too, having run her own songwriting competition alongside the St Albans Folk Festival
as well as helping organise online efforts for New Roots in 2020. Her newest record, Seven, features a varied mix of traditional and self-penned songs
about our seas. Half of the proceeds go towards the great work done by the RNLI.



Doors will open at 7.15pm, but please do come early if you are planning to sit with a large group of friends.

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.
