Folk Music Gathering – Saturdays in January

Please come sing and play folk music with us on Saturdays in January. The folk group will meet every Saturday this January at 2pm for about an hour and a half. If you want to join, please contact Mike by the Friday before, and he will confirm we have a critical mass of folk singers! Please bring your favorite folk songs to share with us (lyrics and chords, if you have them!).

Bring your voice and/or an instrument. If there’s a song you want to sing, bring some lyrics and chords printed out to share. This is just for fun, all are welcome! Please come and lend your voice to our song. Contact Mike Stimson with questions and check your weekly newsletter for any changes.
