Praise for the Folk Club
Maddie Morris sent us this after performing at the Folk Club on 16th February:
"Cambridge Folk Club is an example of what a folk club should look like, and the direction I hope the folk scene continues to go in. With a commitment both to the tradition, and to creating events that welcome everyone. Cambridge Folk Club is a warm, welcoming and safe atmosphere for artists and audiences and a true embodiment of what folk music should be. People coming together, sharing music, laughter and community through song. The team are welcoming, friendly and helpful, the sound is beautiful and the audiences are appreciative."

Leannán is an award-winning acoustic duo, weaving intimate tales of enduring love, loss and life, into a gentle tapestry of stories to nourish the soul. Greater than the sum of their parts, Leannán take songs that inspire them and well-crafted original compositions to impart a powerful musical intimacy. The name Leannán, derived from the Gaelic word for beloved or lovers, is well chosen for the real-life couple Amy Gray and Stephen Jones, who definitely wear their heart on their musical sleeve. Their chemistry is palpable as they take listeners on a melodic journey through a range of eclectic genres. Inspired by a blend of singer songwriter, folk, Americana and country, Leannán perfectly balances interwoven vocal harmonies with mesmerising acoustic guitar to create their own magical story that will leave you wanting more.
