The Mermaid's Tavern

Online Folk Club

The Mermaid's Tavern is an online folk club from a home digital studio. We connect and coach participatory audiences, session leaders, and performers pivoting to digital to create and cultivate online community. 

Check out the rosters to see who joins us and what we sing, and join the mailing list for links to online sessions. 

Tips and patrons keep us on the air and releasing new music on Bandcamp, so thanks for your donations toward studio services.

We had 38 singers from 3 or 4 different countries, all engaged and supportive listeners as well as fabulous singers. I'm so grateful to Lynn for enabling us to come together and keep our community strong and build it as well during these hard times."

-- Heather Livingston, Maryland


"The sessions are well steered, with no idle chat – and yet there’s always time for a cordial welcome. The host’s respect for the participants goes hand-in-voice with the sense of mutual trust that this engenders. Singers therefore experience a feeling of being valued, not least for adding value to the shared experience.”

--David Kidman, Yorkshire, UK
