Something really special as we return from our break
The Churchfitters is a folk band like no other. A double bass made out of a saucepan. Heart-wrenching vocals accompanied by a musical saw or a glass harp. Foot-stompingly fast fiddle mixed with infectious funk-rock rhythms. And traditional tunes reinvigorated with mesmerising jazz sax.
The three virtuoso musicians from England and France strut their stuff on a stage that bristles with instruments - adding flute, banjo, dulcimer, tin whistle, guitar, ukulele, electric hub-cap bass-bouzouki and a sackful of percussion to their ensemble. And let’s not forget the unique ‘bing-bong’ machine made out of hack-saw blades.
Throw in some exquisite harmonies, a slew of startlingly original songs and a few jokes that create instant rapport and you’ve got a high energy show that always leaves audiences cheering. How do you adequately describe such a musically diverse, uplifting band? You leave it to Mike Harding, a self-confessed ‘huge, huge fan’. He calls their music 'totally brilliant and beautiful'.
Support will be provided by one of our regular members - Frank Dooley
Bob Fox
Tickets £17:50 (members £15:00)
We are very pleased to be able to welcome to Uxbridge one of the UK’s most iconic folk voices - Bob Fox
"With half a century of experience performing, touring, and songwriting, Bob is truly a master of his craft. Good folk music always tells a tale, and Bob is one of the best at performing songs of love, joy, work, and humour, weaving the rich experiences of his life into the narrative." - The Journal of Music in Ireland
Bob has gone on to have an exciting career, collaborating and touring with icons including Stu Luckley, Ralph McTell, and Richard Thompson, as well as performing the role of Songman in the West End production of War Horse "
"One of the best voices in England" - Ralph McTell
Liz Simcock
Liz Simcock has been called one of the country’s finest female singer songwriters*. Her songs – often autobiographical and highly personal – are immediately accessible to audiences and injected with poetry, emotion and splashes of humour. In 1999 she featured on the Playpen Album of New Acoustic Music alongside Eliza Carthy, Billy Bragg, Eddi Reader and Kathryn Williams. Since then she has trodden an independent path, gaining a growing reputation as a performer and songwriter. Liz counts Richard Thompson, Clive Gregson, Boo Hewerdine and Joni Mitchell amongst her songwriting influences.
Plumhall
Tickets £15:00 (members £12:50)
Plumhall are a great favourite at Uxbridge and it is good to have them back again.
They need no introduction, but to quote The Journal of Music in Ireland: "Plumhall (Michelle Plum and Nick B Hall) are an acclaimed UK songwriting duo known for their captivating vocal harmonies and exquisite acoustic guitar playing. Their original songs have earned them widespread acclaim. Their first two albums, Thundercloud and The Ghost of Noise, received significant recognition, including a “Hidden Gem” recommendation from The Guardian/Observer. From the alt-country feel of the debut to the more experimental sound of the follow-up, Plumhall have shown their ability to blend strong songwriting with diverse musical influences. Their much-anticipated third album, One Star Awake, was released in June 2024 to critical acclaim and is available on all major platforms, as well as in CD format at their live shows." So make sure you pick up a copy when you come to see them!
Support will be provided by our very own Dave Artus -
- accompanied by fiddler Erica Banks.
