** STAY SAFE ** 'HANDS FACE SPACE' ** STAY SAFE ** WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ON *** TUESDAY 8TH OCTOBER 2024 *** when we welcome: Dave Ellis & Boo Howard to Dartford Folk Club "Dave Ellis and Boo Howard simply exude class. With Boo's wonderful voice and Dave's stunning song writing and guitar playing, they are always classy, imaginative and engaging... a lot of superlatives, but they are that good." - (Chesham FC) Dave left Liverpool and headed to London with his guitar at the tender age of 18. He was soon headlining at major venues, getting rave reviews or his extraordinary guitar playing, duetting with Gordon Giltrap and touring with his hero Bert Jansch. Melody Maker listed him as 'one of the 6 best guitarists in the world'. With the release of his solo album, radio and TV beckoned and after a spot on the Old Grey Whistle Test, Dave decided to form 'The Dave Ellis Band'. Boo joined as the bass player and soon became the main singer. The pair became a solid partnership renowned for their unusual blend of powerful songwriting, exquisite guitar playing and beautiful harmonies. Dave & Boo are now an integral part of the British acoustic folk scene and firm favourites with audiences up and down the land. Doors Open at 7.15pm with the evening starting at 8pm. NO RESERVED SEATING! Please do come early if you are planning to sit with a large group of friends. For further information, please E-mail: dartfordfolkclub@gmail.com |

PAM & ALAN COLLS
Founders of the Dartford Folk Club, Pam and Alan Colls ran the Club together for over 40 years, booking an amazing variety of artists within the Folk genre. Sadly both Pam and Alan have passed away but, at our 50th Birthday celebrations in October 2023, the team, guests and audience raised a glass to remember their friendship, achievements and amazing contributions to the music world. The Dartford Folk Club is now managed by a small team of original members in memory of and as a legacy to Pam & Alan's love for music.
