A Crookes Folk Club presentation at The Princess Royal, 43 Slinn Street, Sheffield, S10 1NW.*TICKETING & DOOR POLICY*
Whilst we occasionally run ticketed Friday Night Specials, entry for our regular weekly Thursday club nights is on a first-come-first-served basis and unticketed and we do not take advanced seat bookings.
Entry for regular club nights is free, we pay our guests by way of a *CASH* collection. Whilst we understand that some simply haven't the means to make a contribution and absolutely DO NOT wish to exclude them, we expect those who can to make as generous a donation as they are able in recognition of our guest's work.
*PLEASE CHECK FOR UPDATES BEFORE SETTING OUT*
Life is full of unexpected ups and downs, illness, weather and other unexpected things can spoil the best made plans. We may sometimes have to change our guest at short notice, or even cancel an evening altogether. To avoid disappointment please re-visit the relevant night's event for updates *BEFORE* setting out.
*GLORIA MONDAY
People first hearing Gloria Monday say that their stripped-back combination of voice, clarinet and guitar is quite different and unexpected. They mix folk, jazz songs and their own songs with passion and feeling. They have a loyal following in Sheffield, their local gigs often sell out, and won the 2015 Edinburgh Folk Songwriting Competition with their poignant tale, 'Harriet Quimby'
Karen and Chris met in 2013, each of them has a long musical history but had not played for quite a while. Karen’s more formal training in classical music and jazz, and Chris’s experience of folk music, skiffle and learning to play in a Beat Group in the 1960s, mean that nothing they do is taken for granted, each song arrangement has been negotiated with care as well as some humour which comes over in their relaxed style of performance.
