4th September featuring Rigmarollers plus floorspots

WE’RE BACK!

After a looong break, Tooting Folk is hosting our first live indoor event since March 2020 on 4th September.

The set-up is the same as in the pre-pandemic days: floor spots, featured acts, beer and gossip about the folk world!

Our first featured act is the Rigmarollers. Featuring Ed Hopwood and Julian Marshall, the group play uplifting, original and classic, ragtime, blues, jazz, jug band and fiddle tunes on harmonica, fiddle, guitars, mandolin and washboard.

As before, there will be floor spots for those who want to sing a song, perform a tune or play the spoons.

Those who want to perform should come along at 7:30pm to put your name on the list.

Doors 7:30pm. Music starts at 8pm. Entry £5 on the door (sorry, no pre-booking – cash only!)

Upstairs at the Gorringe Park, 29 London Road, Tooting, SW17 9JR

See y’all there!

Any queries, call/message 07375481959 (Sarah) or 07951163434 (Alex)

1st May Tooting Folk Zoom singaround

Hi all!

It’s been a strange year and a bit, but this May’s Zoom singaround will be the last one we’re doing (hopefully) for the forseeable future!


In June and July, we’ll be aiming to do so outdoor singarounds before our standard August break and then – fingers crossed – we might be able to transition back into some proper physical gigs, assuming there isn’t another Covid resurgence.


So, once more with feeling on 1st May!


If you want to join, just download Zoom (if you haven’t already) and then click the link below:
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/7147915213?pwd=TlV2bjVObmlqTUJ5bndaeHhUOXA3dz09

Meeting ID: 714 791 5213


Passcode: 546321


You’ll be placed in a ‘meeting room’ and then I’ll accept your entry to the Zoom meeting.

Trying to avoid gatecrashers – a problem we’ve had a couple times now – so if I don’t know you or someone else can’t vouch for you I might send a message to you before accepting you just to check.


We’ll be hosting the Zoom meeting from 7:30pm – send me a chat message in the application if you want to play/sing a song and I’ll sign you up. Music will kick off at 8pm, just like the normal events. We’ll finish sometime after 11pm.


Check you have “use Original Sound” activated on Zoom. If you have a decent microphone and/or camera, do use it!


Any questions, send a message on 07951163434.
