TwickFolk: Singers' Night With Stage And PA System

A change from the informal singarounds.

A floor spot on a Singers Night will be ten minutes so it will be a chance to perform two songs consecutively.

Performing on stage in front of an expectant audience puts us firmly in the spotlight and necessitates more practice and preparation.

To assist in the process, more experienced regular performers and volunteers are happy to offer assistance to help prepare those for whom the step up from the singaround to the darkened stage may be daunting.

For example they'll be happy to help unaccompanied singers choose a suitable pitch (or even accompany them if you prefer).

They aim to set up the stage from 6:00pm and if time allows there should be the opportunity to have a run-through using the microphones. So please come prepared with everything you need; capo, picks, guitar strap and most importantly please to paraphrase Bob Dylan 'know your song well before you start singing'!

If you have any questions please email via the venue's website. They hope that the most successful spots may eventually get the opportunity to progress to a full support spot, usually 25 minutes to 5 songs!
