DEPTFORD FOLK

Please note we are not running a TOOTING FOLK night in December. The next one is Saturday 6th January and we have Kieran Towers & Charlotte Carrivick as guest act! Plus floor spots.

Due to a last minute illness our booked guest act has had to pull out, however we are mighty pleased to have Magic City Trio instead! 

Whether singing, playing guitar, ukulele or mandolin , Angela Meyer & William Cox’s relaxed banter and gift for story telling  makes their music both interesting and memorable.  Their much anticipated second album ‘Dance of the Copper Trail’ (2017) is being hailed as their best work yet.
