Hi and welcome to this week’s Newsletter. You never quite know what to expect at Dreamers. As MCs last week, we were delighted to see not only most of our regulars but also some new faces as well as some more occasional friends. It all made for a busy evening including a new Ladies Shanty Crew, Chantilly, from St Ives among the newcomers. Thanks to all who came along and made it easy to fit in lots of lovely music (and some good...
Read MoreWelcome to this week’s Dreamers Newsletter The combination of a competing event and awful weather meant smaller numbers than usual at the Club last Sunday but we still had some lovely performances, all well organised by Robin. Thanks to all who made it. I think many would have been glad of the slightly early finish given the Four Lanes mist and rain. On to this Sunday and we look forward to seeing everyone again. We’ve welcomed Pete...

A little gap now before our next guests, The Crows, with some very well-known names, on 16th April. We can look forward to that and to other guests but for now we can all enjoy our own Singers Nights (which often seem to have a very high standard). The next Cornish Zoom...
Read MoreHi and welcome to another Dreamers Newsletter We all enjoyed our visitors, Silvington, from the Folk on the Moor Club, last Sunday. John and Tricia gave us a lovely evening of their own songs, not least from their latest CD, “Shadows on the Sand” with plenty of songs about places and life in Cornwall. I’m sure we’ll be hearing more of them in future. A singers night this coming Sunday followed by the visit of an old favourite, Mike...
Read MoreHi and welcome to this week’s Newsletter. I hope last Sunday’s session at the Club was the usual success – unfortunately we had to miss it but we plan to be back this week for another Singers night before the visit of Silvington, Tricia Moore and John Connor, established performers from the Folk on the Moor Club in Ivybridge. More about them next week or on their own web-site at Home (silvington.org) No sooner had I sent...
