Pip Collings & Paul Vile + support from Back of a Length
TwickFolk at The Cabbage Patch, TW1 3SZ , [Venue Details]Our final headline act of 2025 combines the talents of singer-songwriter Pip Collings and TwickFolk’s longest-serving volunteer Paul Vile. Pip and Paul have been playing their urban folk together for more 30 years and have released the albums Portraits and Landscapes (2000) and Diary (2005).
Pip (vocals, guitar) began singing in folk clubs when she moved to London from her Suffolk home in the late 1980’s. She sang in a duo with Robb Johnson for six years in the early 1990’s and in the Johnson Collings Band.

He has been a member of The Manana Brothers and Woodsmoke and is a member of rock band ClogIron. He released the album The Girl Always Wins in 2018 with John Prosser. A regular at TwickFolk since 1988, Paul has been promoter, treasurer and MC and is nowadays regularly found running the sound desk.
