Very sorry to have to announce that tonight's John Spiers & Jackie Oates gig at Wychwood Folk Club has had to be postponed because of a power cut at the venue as a result of the high winds. We are hoping to reschedule the concert next week or the week after. I'll post the new date as soon as I know.

And we're on bluesky! Follow for updates about our future events and next year's festival!
