Local singer Joe Wilkes and others have been putting on a regular 'Folk Roots New Routes' night at the Amersham Arms in New Cross for the past year. They've decided to put it on hold for the foreseeable future, with their last planned event taking place tomorrow night - Sunday December 30th. They say: 'We've been running this night monthly for exactly 12 months, we're stopping it for a while, so this is the last one. The night before New Years Eve. We've got loads of past regulars already promised to play, early start: late finish. Great real ale, huge PA and intimate candelit surroundings'. £3 entry.
Kit and Cutter, who have put on some great folk nights at the late Deptford Arms, Old Nun's Head and elsewhere, have also gone quiet of late. So looks like there's a gap for someone to put on a good, regular folk/acoustic night in the New Cross/Deptford area.
The gap will be partially filled though by The Goose is Out who are moving their bases around. The events they have previously been hosting at the Mag in East Dulwich are moving in January to the Old Nun's Head. Their concerts are moving from Dulwich Hamlet Football Club to upstairs at the Crown and Greyhound in Dulwich village. Further details at their website.
