From Little Acorns...
" We were lucky enough to see the traditional Mexican band Los Vega on their recent tour of the UK, which was very inspiring, and we'd love to provide a platform for Warwickshire-based musicians performing traditional music from other countries, including continental Europe, Asia and Africa."

The New Heart of England Folk Club makes a welcome return with their second Foak @ The Oak concert on Tuesday 26th May.
Once again, Oak House on Upper Holly Walk will play host to a curated line-up of local musicians, who will each perform a 30 minute acoustic set of folk and roots music. This month's artists include a rare solo set from Anya Fay of the popular harmony trio Daisybell; Titans of the Warwickshire folk scene Malc Gurnham and Gill Gilsenan; lively folk and ceilidh band Starley Road; and Tim Hemming, a singer and guitarist who specialises in early blues music.
Local folk duo Harper's Dove, who host Foak @ The Oak, are keen to showcase a wide variety of musical styles within the broad category of folk and roots music. Ruth Noble, of Harper's Dove said: " We were lucky enough to see the traditional Mexican band Los Vega on their recent tour of the UK, which was very inspiring, and we'd love to provide a platform for Warwickshire-based musicians performing traditional music from other countries, including continental Europe, Asia and Africa."
