FOLK CLUB
EVERY WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT 7:30PM
OXFORD ART FACTORY - SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

“from little things big things grow”

The first rule of Folk Club is: 
you do not talk about Folk Club. 

The second rule of Folk Club is: 
well, actually, you DO talk about Folk Club. Please tell your friends x

In the early summer of 2009 The Falls embarked on a residency at the Hotel Hollywood in Surry Hills every Wednesday night. Inspired by Communion, a night in the UK founded by Ben Lovett (Mumford and Sons), Kevin Jones (Cherbourg) and producer Ian Grimble www.facebook.com/CommunionMusic, this little known gem in the Sydney music scene has been steadily growing into a community of musicians, industry and fans alike, and provides a platform for new bands in the Sydney folk/alt-country scene. The night has seen the likes of Lanie Lane, Georgia Fair and Passenger grace the stage and has become closely associated with the nu-folk movement that seems to be growing here.

This year, Wednesday nights transformed into Folk Club. Folk Club is a place where songwriter's come together to meet each-other and share their songwriting with like-minded souls. Each week the audience have the chance to get a more intimate glimpse of the artists and learn a little more about them, the stories behind their songs and their songwriting.

Three artists perform live at the Oxford Art Factory each Wednesday night. The third artist each week is the featured artist. Our host, the lovely Emma Swift (who also hosts In The Pines on FBi radio), interview's them during their set about their songs, their inspiration, their weekend :) This part of the night is filmed and a clip is available online the following Monday. Founder’s of Folk Club, The Falls, are the artists in residence and play the middle spot each week with a soloist or duo in the opening the night.

So come on down one Wednesday night to find out what we're all going on about. Don't forget to wear your best boots cause you might end up on the telly :) well, the vimeo.
