FOLK AT THE FRINGE
May 17, 2015 @ 2:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Join some of Glasgow’s best musicians for a fun day of Folking in the beautiful surrounds of Pollok Park. The day will see workshops and sharing from a wide variety of vocal and instrumental traditions, culminating in a very special evening performance featuring YOU, our participants, not to mention our tutors. This event is the first of its kind at the Southside Fringe Glasgow and we are really excited about the line up. Whether you are a beginner or an old Folky, there’s something for everyone…

DEBBIE ARMOUR – Gaelic Song for the Hard of Highland
WEST OF SCOTLAND UKULELE PLAYERS (WOSUP) – Uke for beginners and Intermediate

All the workshop details and timings for the day are live on our Facebook event – www.facebook.com/events/1548251438787893/
A day ticket gets you a place in as many of our workshops that take your fancy, a simple evening meal with us at the The Old Barn + Yoga Barn and a ticket to the evening performance. We hope you’ll join in and share what you’ve learned, then you get to kick back and listen to our amazing tutors share their talents.
Workshops kick off at 2pm, and the gig starts at 7.30pm
If you want to invite some of your own folk to hear you and enjoy the evening show, we have tickets available for gig only.
Tickets are priced at £20 for the whole day and £8 evening gig only. Available from www.musicglue.com/folk-at-the-fringe
