Brown Boots

Brown Boots features Martin Clarke on fiddle and Will Allen on box. They are both highly accomplished and musicians individually and together,
equally at home playing tunes with friends in the pub as performing on a festival main stage.

They came together for a gig at the Man of Kent in Rochester, having previously met at Shrewsbury Folk Festival. Musically it immediately seemed to click,
and an audience member commented on their choice of footwear, so the duo's name was set.

Since then Will and Martin have made two duo albums together, performed at all the main UK folk festivals, played for countless ceilidhs
and have collaborated to form a multi-award winning partnership playing for Tower Ravens rapper sword dancers.

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.
