A free evening of live folk music by local artists James Thompson, Dave Metcalfe, Glyn Shipman and Shanty Town, with no booking required.
Live Lounge returns to the Guild Lounge on Friday 13 November, with a line-up of four folk acts from around Preston. It's a free evening of live music, and since there's no booking required, you can just turn up on the night.
Taking the stage are James Thompson, Dave Metcalfe, Glyn Shipman and Shanty Town. The night is billed as a showcase of some of the best local folk music artists, so you'll get four different takes on the tradition in one sitting. With a mix of solo performers and a group, the bill pulls together a few different corners of the local scene rather than sticking to one particular sound.
Because it's a showcase, the focus is on the music itself rather than a single headliner. You'll hear from Thompson, Metcalfe, and Shipman as solo acts, with Shanty Town adding a band to the mix. It's a good way to catch several local folk musicians in one go, especially if you've only heard one or two of them before.
