The Potteries Folk Club night with singer-songwriter Robb Johnson and floor singers at Fenton Town Hall.
Robb Johnson is playing at Fenton Town Hall on Friday 13 November, presented by The Potteries Folk Club. He's a songwriter who's spent years working across the UK, and this is a proper headline slot for him in Stoke.
If you're not familiar with his name, he's one of those writers who's built a reputation on the strength of his songs rather than the hype. The Guardian's Robin Denselow once called him 'an English original', and Mike described him as 'one of our best singer-songwriters ever'. He's widely recognised as one of the finest songwriters working in the UK today, and that's the kind of act he'll be bringing to the night.
The evening follows the Potteries Folk Club's usual format: there'll be floor singers performing before the main act, so if you're a player yourself, there's a chance to get up and share a song before Johnson takes over. It's a good way to stretch the night out and hear a few different voices from around the local scene before the headliner comes on.

All of that happens at Fenton Town Hall, in the Café, at Albert Square, Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, ST4 3FA. The whole thing runs from 19:45 to 22:45, so it's a full evening of music rather than a quick stop-in. If you're coming from across the city, you've got plenty of time to settle in before the floor singers get going.
