Although the 5th Wednesday of the month traditional music tune session only consisted of a single violin, piano accordion, banjo, whistle, guitar, soprano saxophone and mandolin on this occasion, the evening rocked along nicely with great music and the followers of this group of musicians seem to be on the increase so the bar was buzzing which provided a marvelous atmosphere at the Kildare Lodge Hotel and Bar in Minehead.
If you are looking to find out what's on Wednesdays in West Somerset and Exmoor and fancy listening to some traditional Christmas favourites mixed in with lots of English, Irish, French and Eastern European (Klezmer) tunes, why not check out where this local session of musicians is hanging out currently.
Information can be found on the local website Somerset and Dorset Folk Diary which gives details of where this group of musicians can be found on other Wednesdays of the month. Just look down the page for 'Half-Pace' Sessions to see a list of other folk music pub venues and to get contact details for the organiser for this traditional folk music session or phone the venue direct to confirm in case of change of schedule.
Christmas is a great time for traditional music entertainment and for fellowship so what better way to spend an evening than listening to a variety of lively traditional tunes or, if you are an acoustic musician, joining in with this local group of musicians playing traditional English, Irish, French and Eastern European (Klezmer) tunes. All for the price of a drink at the bar! See you there, perhaps :-)
