Dave’s got a blog, check it out!

Our very own Dave Delarre has picked up his digital quill and will be writing a lot of nonsense over on the UK Folk Music website -

http://www.ukfolkmusic.co.uk/blog

Expect ramblings, musings, poetry, novellas, philosophical musings or maybe just the occasional rant about the price of guitar strings. Who knows!?

Be sure to leave him a comment though so he thinks at least one person has read it.

Auction of Promises – Mawkin Gigs, CD’s, Guitar Lessons and Pizza!

As part of a fantastic fundraising effort Mawkin are offering 2 tickets to any concert next year, a signed copy of the new album before anyone else gets it, a free guitar lesson from Dave and Nick will make you a pizza!

When the Oxford Folk Festival was cancelled in 2011, the local folkies of Oxford – determined not to sit at home on a sunny weekend in April – pulled together to create Folk Weekend in its place. The good news is that its returning in 2012 – woo! – however they desperately need cash! So the lovely Cat Kelly pulled a few strings and has come up with this -

Its basically a massive eBay effort in which your favourite folk musicians/singers pull together to create a fantastic variety of things that may interest people and get them to split with their hard earnt cash.

So get involved the links to our promises are here!
