An Evening of Guitar Virtuosity and Great Songs


Last Saturday the Saltcellar folk club was treated to a memorable set of guitar-based songs from Sarah Jones, ably accompanied by Duncan Gibbs on a range of instruments, including the dulcimer.

Sarah sang her well-crafted songs in many styles. She included lively blues numbers, thoughtful folk songs and anthemic examples of the singer-songwriter's art. The audience also got the opportunity to sing along, which added to the enjoyment. 

Sarah was promoting her new LP "Let Days Speak" which is well worth obtaining (as quite a few of those present did). You can find out more at www.sarahjones.org.uk/.

We were also privileged to hear some great songs from the floor, including a very moving version of Janis Ian's "At Seventeen" and a cracking rendition of "Delaney's Donkey".

Next month we welcome Jeff & Elaine Gillett on 3rd November. You can find out more about their music on their You Tube page.  We look forward to seeing you for this very popular local duo.
