Folk in the Cellar
The cosy cellar bar of The Constitution is home to
one of London’s favourite folk and roots music venues.
Every other Thursday, musicians and fans of live,
acoustic music head for this traditional pub on the Regents Canal in Camden.
“Folk in the Cellar” has been run for three years now by London Celtic band,
The Northern Celts, and it has gone from strength to strength.
Every fortnight, club-goers are treated to a set by the highly respected
Northern Celts and then a selection of ‘open mike’ spots from regular
musicians and special guests.
The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, with a fondness between musicians,
notable particularly in the regular “session” at the end of each club night,
when many musicians join together to share great music.
Folk in the Cellar has played host to musicians from countries
around the world, including, the US, Canada, Australia,
New Zealand, Ireland, Holland and Israel. It is a great place for
singer-songwriters to come and showcase their material and
for other instrumentalists to play tunes or accompany singers.
Folk in the Cellar is one of the vibrant forums keeping live
acoustic music alive in London. Long may it thrive!
Sounds Like
Probably the best kept secret in London's accoustic folk scene, situated by the Regent Canal in Camden half a mile towards Islington. Probaly the number 1 club for folk talent in London's build up to the Olympics.
well, it has been a long and winding road, and an even longer time coming, but my debut CD, I Remember, is FINALLY HERE!!! YAY!!!!!
to celebrate, American HeartBeat Records(tm) has arranged a FREE DOWNLOAD of Now Is The Time in exchange for a valid email address. Now Is The Time is a brand new, upbeat song I wrote: we are living in turbulent times. suddenly it is okay to be greedy and heartless? no way! a song of hope for our future, a new vision of America and the world.
we have a bunch of exciting things planned to kick this whole thing off, and we need to get a better picture of who our friends are, so the FREE DOWNLOAD form will ask you a few questions, like, what is your country and nearest major city. it all takes maybe 15 seconds.
After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
Thanks a lot for the add Folk and Roots Music in the The Cellar. Hopefully I'll get over to play an acoustic set sometime. Cheers for now, Tim (Blind River Scare)

If you are interested on recording your LIVE SHOW don’t look any further.
We are the BEST and CHEAPEST way of tracking your show on to Pro tools. From Big gigs to small venues we can adapt to your requirements.
Get an excellent sounding live album, even if the sound on that night wasn’t excellent, because we record a separate signal , so what goes to pro tools is a completely clean and unprocessed signal, ready for us to mix down.
As gospellers have said, Beneath signalling skies, On land dusty to tread, A trough in a stable Was the strawy first-bed Of a divine baby - The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope - There then and here now; The yuletide of goodwill - There then and here now.
In respect of this chance, Beneath bright or dark skies, Faith’s the star that we glance Attending Christ’s churches And trying to enhance, With singing and ritual, Our God-loving stance.
