Bookshop Sessions: Folk Night - XMAS SPECIAL!

A festive edition of a monthly folk session at Morocco Bound Bermondsey in Southwark, south London, built around traditional roots music from the British Isles and beyond.

This special is part of a monthly folk session series at Morocco Bound Bermondsey, a venue in Southwark that hosts concerts and shows in London, and the evening takes place in a bookshop setting. The repertoire draws on roots music from the British Isles and further afield, covering English tunes, Irish lilting, Scottish songs and old-time classics. Both established figures and newer names from London's folk scene take part, so the sessions bring together experienced players and emerging musicians.

Instruments heard at these sessions include fiddles, accordions and guitars, with Small Pipes or Celtic Harp appearing at times. Participants are welcome to bring their own fiddle to join in with the music.

The night's music spans blues, country and folk, making it a fit for listeners who enjoy traditional songs and tunes in a relaxed, communal setting.
