Christchurch Folk Music Club

The Christchurch Folk Music Club has been making an effort this year to widen our audience and performer appeal.
One of the initiatives we have for this year is to encourage young talent. We are doing this by holding kids open mic nights.
Although we have had small numbers to date, we have seen some great talent, including 1 young singer songwriter that has been asked to come and open for a performer on one of our regular club nights.
So far we have had singers (using backing tracks), instrumentalists, singer-songwriters, dancers and acapella duos performing.
All the details are on the flyer below.
