The June First Tuesday Guest Night at OLC is a double bill with sets from Chris Leeds & Megan-Lily: two outstanding performers who have wowed club regulars on recent visits to play floorspots.
Chris is a singer-songwriter who accompanies himself on a home made instrument based on the Kenyan Litingu played by plucking the strings while held on his lap.
The result is blend of contemporary folk, classical & world music with a spiritual dimension & satiric edge. He is also a multi-instrumentalist who plays guitar & harp & leads community percussion workshops.
Megan is young performer who plays a mix of self penned songs & covers on guitar, at times utilising various special effects for backing. She has a fine powerful voice & delivers her songs with full commitment of intensity, heart & soul.
We start the evening with floorspots, followed by sets of around 45 min each from the guests with a mid-evening break taken at around 9.
If you’d like to perform, please come early and flag up your intentions on arrival to avoid disappointment. We’re open to poets in addition to singers, musicians, and, of course, an audience.
There’ll be PA available with mics & leads for plugin & play.
A hat collection in CASH goes to the guests, with a suggested minimum contribution of £6 per head. Please give more if you can afford it, they are first class acts.
The club premises & CAMRA award-winning bar will be open on the day from 6.15 pm. – card payments only.
Free entry to OLC/CAMRA members & £1 to non-members payable at the bar.
