McNiff's Folk Sundowner

Jason McNiff is back at The Jenny Lind this Friday 6 November for another session of McNiff's Folk Sundowner. It's a folk music night he hosts himself, and since it runs every Friday evening, it's become a bit of a regular fixture in the Hastings music calendar.

McNiff is both a singer and a songwriter, and he's the one who puts the whole thing together. The session is built around folk music, and as the host, he's the main feature on the bill. If you've been before, you'll know the format: a folk set on a Friday night, with McNiff leading the way.

It's a weekly thing, so if you miss this one, there's another coming the following Friday. That's part of why it's called a sundowner — it's an early evening session that fits into the start of the weekend rather than a late-night gig. If you're in Hastings on a Friday and fancy some live folk, this is where you'll find it.

It runs from 5:00pm to 7:00pm at The Jenny Lind, so you're in and out well before the night really gets going. Entry is free, and with the early start, it's an easy one to drop into without needing to plan your whole evening around it.
