FOLK music is returning to Nettlebed at the end of the month, following a Christmas break.
Running at 80% capacity due to the ongoing covid situation, the Nettlebed Folk Club will welcome Jon Boden on Monday, January 31.
He is well-known as the lead singer of the progressive folk group Bellowhead.
The group has sold more than 250,000 albums, had seven singles playlisted on Radio 2 and sold out hundreds venues including The Royal Albert Hall.
Since Bellowhead split up in 2016 Jon has continued to perform a mixture of English folk music.
Solo Jon performs material from Bellowhead and his duo – Spiers & Boden, self-penned songs from his albums Songs From The Floodplain, Painted Lady, Afterglow and Rose In June, plus his A Folk Song A Day project in which he recorded 365 folk songs in one year.
He also released a new album Last Mile Home in March 2021, the final part in the trilogy of post-climate change albums.
And he also appeared in the Richard Curtis film About Time, performing some of his music in the time-travel romantic comedy.
His gig takes place at Nettlebed Village Club, in the High Street of the village.
Doors open at 7.50pm, and the music starting shortly after.
