I hear the #Oxford 3rd Sunday Social #Session will be at the Royal Blenheim again this Sunday, not at the Lamb & Flag. Nothing against RB, which has always been an amazing place for the FolkWeekend / FolkFestival late sessions, but I thought the LF was a great addition to the range of session venues around here, so it would be a shame to lose it. #folksession

The monthly #EuroSession will take place this coming Wednesday, 9.4. at the #OxfordBlue (Marston St, off Iffley Rd) starting 8:30 pm. Feels like coming home as it is quite close to the James Street Tavern. And the pub has been a lovely and supportive venue for the recently started Thursday sessions. #Oxford #FolkSession

#EuroSession at the #Bandstand in Florence Park #Oxford coming up this Sunday, 4pm BST. park closes at 8pm https://michaelgrr.wordpress.com/2025/03/25/bandstand-sessions-are-back/ #folk #folkSession #scandi #balfolk #French #Breton #Galician

Had a good music session last night - our usual small core of free-reed instruments being supplemented by a low whistler, a guitarist and a banjo player; the latter two did a couple of “old time” songs, while the former encouraged us into a brief and enjoyable Northumbrian spree. And of course I took my new smallpipes, which went down well.
I’m looking forward to a get-together to play in the park on Easter Monday ahead of our next regular gathering on the last Tuesday night in April already.

If you’re in or near #BedfordUK and play folk music you should come along - message me for details!

#FolkSession at the #Oxford Blue happening #today, from 7:30. That's in Marston Street, coming from St. Clements it's the continuation of Rectory Road. Coming from the Plain down the Iffley Rd it's the 4th on the left. I needed to write that down, otherwise I would have to look it up every month ... #folk

#Oxford Slow Session happening today at the #SlowAndSteady, Abingdon Road, 4pm. https://oxfordslowsession.com/about/tune-of-the-month/ #folk #FolkSession

The session has come around again already! Last Tuesday of the month, 7.30pm at The Wellington Arms, Wellington Street, Bedford (UK) - all welcome, generally a mixture of English, Northumbrian and European folk music. I know there are some local-ish people on here, so why not come along?
(Because 11 and a half hours isn’t enough notice you say? Fair point.)

#Oxford #EuroPlus #FolkSession happening at the Up In Arms tomorrow, Sunday 28th, 4pm.

The sunlit front room of the historic #LambAndFlag pub in St Giles has been an amazing venue for today's #FolkSession. #Oxford #folk

A quick reminder, there is no folk session at the Welly tonight - by all means go and drink beer, but we won't be there to play any music unfortunately!

#CaperDay went well on Thursday, a great time dancing in one of our favourite pubs and relaxing afterwards. We'd also been there for our #FolkSession on Tuesday (not many players, but reviewed our whole "core" tunebook!) - so last night some of #RedCuthbertMorris celebrated at the #AldburyMorrisMen ale - lots of dancing, lots of cheer, excellent fish & chips (and cheese & biscuits)... a really good week. How way yours?

Friday (fourth Friday of the month) #Scottish Session
From 8pm, White Hart pub in Wolvercote. Tune of the month is Atholl Highlanders.
"A new session at The White Hart in Wolvercote, North Oxford, for Scottish and derived tunes, but not too strict, and with extra points for super-tenuously-Scottish tunes." #folk #FolkSession
