Davy Lamp Sketch
 
The Davy Lamp Folk Club
is held every Saturday evening in the Arts Centre,  Washington.

Each night starts with an informal session from 7.30 p.m. which welcomes musicians of all levels of ability.
Visiting singers and musicians are always welcome.

We also run a series of occasional workshops on various instruments, harmony singing, etc.
Let us know if you’d like us to arranges something in particular.
 





The sound system at the Davy Lamp is second to none.  Our resident sound engineer, Ron Angus, is acknowledged by many as one of the best in the
business.
