Article, Foggy Furze Folk Club, Friday, 21 October 2011
Over at the Foggy Furze Folk Club, at the Atheneum Club in Church Street, Hartlepool, we were mightily entertained by Hilary Blythe and Bob Hall back on 11 October 2011. There was lots of boggie-ing and woogie-ing and some real old blues stuff which I’m sure went back to Bessie Smith, one of the first recorded jazz/blues voices. Some excellent tunes and we can recommend Hilary and Bob to any other blues or boogie woogie lovers out there. Our next guest is Trev Reed, who hails from north of the Tyne, and he shall be entertaining us on Tuesday, 8 November 2011.
This Friday, 21 October 2011, is Headland Folk Club night so get yourselves across to the Cos for an evening of song and fun with all your friends.
This Saturday, 22 October 2011, there is an evening’s entertainment, led by Skyran but with others taking part, over at the Nursery in Hopp street, Hartlepool. This will be a cracking night, these ones led by Skyran are always a good fun night. And don’t forget the Nursery also plays host to the Pools Folk and Acoustic Club each Monday for your delectation and delight.

What a nice friendly club! We were greeted with great hospitality and had a really pleasant evening. Our first visit but it was just like playing to old friends. Bob Hall
