Donate - help us support musicians through these hard times
You can watch our gigs as they are live-streamed us on YouTube. Please donate what you can, as every penny goes to the performers.
We are surviving post-pandemic - with thanks to our faithful crew, Thanet Council, the Music Venue Trust and Arts Council England for their generous support - we couldn't do it without you!
Restrictions are currently coming and going at short notice, but we will carry on staging and broadcasting live acoustic music in a safe environment and so supporting our hard-pressed musicians as best we can.
We already have a great programme set up for 2022 and hope you will join us either in-person or on-line!
