Sharp's Folk Club
Cecil Sharp House, NW1 7AY , [Venue Details]The world-famous traditional singing night.
The best-known floor singers’ night in London – trad songs & tunes, ballads, shanties, rousing choruses and more - with the best folk harmonies in the Capital. Perform up front, or join the chorus from the audience and help us blow the roof off.
Joining In
Just put your name on the list at the door and the MC hosting the evening will call you up to perform, one song at a time. But if you don’t want to perform, no problem – we all love an appreciative audience.
A typical evening
On a typical evening there will be a huge range of songs and tunes – Sharp’s is the place to hear and perform the full range of trad and trad-inspired music.
A rousing chorus song might be followed by a hilarious music hall number, an ancient, miserable ballad (we do like a bit of misery…), something from the folk revival or a newly-penned song in the traditional mould, then on to shanty or skiffle or blues and back again, with a few wild cards along the way…
Around the world
…and although we are based in the home of the English Folk Dance and Song Society, music and songs from other parts of the globe are heartily welcomed, so whichever world tradition your music comes from, it’s sure of a welcome at Sharp’s.
