Counter's Creek

Tickets £15:00 (members: £12:50)

We start the year with an act that is new to our club. Between them the four musicians have performed at most of the UK’s leading Folk and Jazz festivals, played with pop acts including Muse and One Direction, appeared on TV shows such as Strictly Come Dancing and in numerous stage shows on the West End and around the UK. Counter’s Creek is an acoustic folk band who play original music inspired by the folk music of the British Isles and beyond.  With the combination of tightly arranged, intricate music and improvisational flair and daring,  their soulful singing and energetic jigs and reels appeals to music-lovers of all genres.

“Wow, what a brilliant event! The packed out audience was absolutely mesmerized by the beautiful playing and haunting melodies of these four very talented musicians. It was such a treat. Thank you all for a very memorable evening!” – Wootton Fitzpaine Village Hall

“Thank you Counter’s Creek for a wonderful concert. The music was sensational and even people who openly claim not to be ‘folk fans’ tell me they really, really enjoyed it!” – Winfrith Village Hall

Our evening opens with another artist new to the club. Scottish songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Malcolm MacWatt is a unique voice in British Folk/Americana or Transatlanticana as he likes to call it.

Hailing from Morayshire he was raised listening to the folklore and music of Scotland. Like many other young men from the area he worked on the offshore oil rigs. Later on he found work as a newspaper journalist. There is a sensitivity, compassion and humanity in his songwriting which is deliered with a rugged simplicity and directness.  Of his new album ‘Dark Harvest’, Malcolm says:" to work with a producer who has a real passion for the art of music is a joy, a privilege, an education and a huge boost to my confidence as a songwriter and musician."

Masterful songwriting...perceptively written, superbly played and poetically produced" - Americana UK

“MacWatt will doubtless be considered among the best of the new breed of folksingers”   - Lonesome Highway.

The Gerry Colvin Band

Tickets £17:50 (members: £15:00)

By now a firmly established and regular favourite at Uxbridge Folk Club.  Gerry and his band will, by popular demand, again be taking over the whole evening (apart from an out of the ordinary floor spot!) giving us a much appreciated opportunity to listen to more from his extensive back catalogue.  Here are a couple of tracks from his new album 'Past Present And Crescent' to keep you going in the meantime.

Yet another banger of a gig. This month we bring you Banter – "the world’s smallest big band" – Their sound blends English folk roots with bold, contemporary spirit, soaring harmonies, and infectious rhythm. This legendary British Folk band features Simon Care - melodeon, Nina Zella - keyboards & vocals, Tim Walker - drums, percussion, brass & vocals, & Mark Jolley - bass, fiddle, guitar & vocals. Together they have wowed crowds at Glastonbury and around Europe with their unstoppable live energy. Four fine musicians with traditional English roots, who enjoy stretching the limits. They are renowned for being bold and powerfully unique. They are in huge demand at many of the UK’s folk and roots festivals & internationally at European festivals. So we are privileged to be able to bring them to you.

“A splendid disregard for musical boundaries, but with a respect for English traditional music” – Songlines Magazine (4 star review)
