Our main website is available here: Walthamstow Folk, giving our full programme, details of our history and how to get there.
The club meets on Sunday evenings at The Plough Inn, doors open around 7.15 - 7.30. When we've finished the sound check!
Please check the main website for full details: Walthamstow Folk
Standing Room Only
We are also running occasional Friday and Saturday night gigs which we're calling Standing Room Only. You may guess from the title that these will be run more like a rock gig - please don't expect to sit quietly and contemplate the music...
Don't forget there's lots of other great music at The Plough Inn. Check the pub website for details.
The Kittiwakes - CD Launch - Clerkenwell 22nd June
Leigh-on-Sea 3-piece, The Kittiwakes, celebrate the release of their Midwich Records debut, ‘Lofoten Calling’, a collection of original folk songs written about the people, landscape, folklore and history of the Lofoten Islands above the Arctic Circle and influenced by the traditional music of Norway and the British Isles.
'The Kittiwakes craft timeless and magical acoustically dappled folk treats - gentle and alluring ostensibly Gaelic in sound texture and gorgeously flighty braided as they are by corteges of mandolins, accordions and violins.' [LOSING TODAY]
'The Kittiwakes (rissa tridactyla): delicious, intriguing and evocative music, beautifully played and sung by this talented trio. Recommended to twitchers and lovers of folk music alike' [LEIGH FOLK FESTIVAL]
Loads of thanks for the friendship. If you're interested we have just released a CD for which you can pay what you choose (with Free Worldwide Postage), or you can download the album or tracks from itunes ... thanks for your support

Nice to be in contact!! I hope you like the music. I am now recording with a better harmonica player so there should be some new stuff soon!! We are going for that 'campfire' feel... Let me know what you think.
