It’s that time again. Our next gathering sees our first solo female
artist and the return of old favourites!
Anna Ryder is a superb singer-songwriter and talented multiinstrumentalist
whose songs are consistently original and inventive.
She combines a captivating stage presence with an endearing
naivety that reaches out to the whole audience.
When I saw Anna play for the first time she managed to play the
accordion, a trumpet and sing at the same time!
Other people have said:
“The multi-talented ball of energy”
“A confident and varied singer-songwriter”
“Anna Ryder is Fairport’s favourite singer/songwriter”
But what you really need to know is that she is great fun!!
Also we have our, now annual, visit from ‘the Vanguards’. Since
their first spot for us, three years ago, they have grown in stature,
maturity and numbers. Now a five piece band they are playing
prestigious gigs like London’s South Bank Centre, and the
Battlefield Bluegrass festival. But they can still find time to fit in
a gig at the Liphook Folk Club! They will have their new CD
available for sale so make sure to bring some spare cash with you!
The venue is the Liphook Social Club, 4, Headley Road, Liphook,
GU30 7NP. Doors open at 7.00pm and the music should start
around 7.30pm. We are selling tickets in advance and you can
