Welcome to the Dragon Folk Club

Welcome to the official blog of the Dragon Folk Club, which meets for a singers night every Friday at The Bridge Inn, Shortwood, Bristol. Everyone is welcome whether you sing, play or just listen.

In the salt sea

At last week's Dragon session we had a quorum of five singers. There was no theme so we enjoyed a wide variety of songs and styles including some new to the Dragon database, and I suspect at least one, maybe two, that were actually new to the club. There were notably quite a few songs somehow related to the sea, so that is the inspiration for this week's featured image.

You can hear every one of the songs we sang (some even by their Dragon singers) by following the "a selection" link below.

This Friday's session (19 January) will again have no theme, but next week's (26 January) will be our Burns' Night. I'm afraid there will be no actual haggis nor sgian dubhs, and probably no pipes, but the singing of Burns' songs, or in fact anything more or less related to Scotland and the Scots will be encouraged, though not required.

Now listen to a selection of songs sung during this session.
