Southern Tenant Folk Union on BBC One TV – The Andrew Marr Show

Thanks to everyone who managed to see us on TV on Sunday – the band enjoyed playing and has been great to see new people signing up to our mailing list and the nice comments on twitter and facebook…the free MP3 of Men In Robes (the song we played on the show) on the home page of this website will be left up until just before the next album release too so feel free to grab that at any time to get the download…

Also, if anyone didn’t get the chance to see us on our first UK national live TV appearance here’s a few link options…check it out…

We’re currently en route to this weekend’s Ulster American Folk Park Bluegrass Festival nr Omagh in Northern Ireland (which we’re looking forward to immensely) and just wanted to add news of the replacement show for next friday 6th September (to replace the cancelled Ironworks Oswestry show)…we’re now playing in Herefordshire in the Village of Dilwyn at the Village Hall (Cedar Hall)…post code is HR4 8HS…

Doors are 7pm and we’ll be onstage at 8-ish…tickets are £10…kids are £5 each (if you bring more than two the rest are free)…it’s BYOB…and afterwards we’ll be hosting a bluegrass picking session (about 10pm) so bring an acoustic instrument with you and let’s have a jam…

It’s just under a month until STFU are on the road again and we’re playing our first ever show in Birmingham at Kitchen Garden Cafe on Wed 4th Sept before heading to London for a concert at The Forge Arts Centre in Camden on Thu 5th Sept followed by gig TBC on Fri 6th Sept (any ideas?) and a return visit to The Queens Hall in Narberth, Pembrokeshire on Sat 7th Sept…here’s the links for advance tickets…

Just a quick posting to mention that due to a concert cancelling (in understandable circumstances as they’re close to the bank calling time on them remaining open) for Friday 6th September we’re now available for a venue gig, pub, house concert or festival as we’re between London (Forge Arts Centre on Thu 5th Sept) and South West Wales (Queens Hall Narberth on Sat 7th Sept)…

It’s much better and more fun for us to play rather than have a night off (staring at each other in a travelodge car park) so get in touch if you know of anything or have any ideas/leads for a gig that night…

And though it’s only a month away there’s still time to promote anything we can slot in with posters, flyers and local press/radio…
