Win two tickets to the first Irregular Folk night, happening this Saturday

Posted on by Simon Minter

Irregular Folk is a new series of nights at The Cellar in Oxford, which introduces itself this Saturday evening (27 October). Its organisers describe it as “the first of a new series of nights at the Cellar that’s dedicated to delving in to the beauteous world of alt-folk and beyond… It’s going to be like its name in frequency – only happening when we get the right line up – and in style.”

That sounds nice to us. The gig this Saturday will include performances by Maia (who have previously supported Anais Mitchell and the Unthanks), Oxford’s The Yarns, and the finger-pickin’ Nick Edward Harris. It’ll run from 8.00 pm until 11.00 pm when some kind of modern boom-boom dance music presumably begins to kick off as The Cellar becomes a very different environment for one of its club nights.

Entry is a very reasonable £4 in advance or £5 on the door, but because the organisers are good eggs, they’ve given us two free tickets to give away. If you’d like to be in with a chance to win, simply retweet the following tweet – a winner will be picked on Saturday morning:

    I sat on a branch and gave some of my finest bird impressions, but to no avail. I can’t quite work out what I did wrong…
    Or in other words, aren’t the entry contions a little restrictive?! I’m not bothered but there may be others who are!

    HAHAAA very good. We like that, I’ll make you two free tickets and leave them at Truck Store for you to pick up. After midday on saturday.

    Well there you go Mr Fuel, how kind is that?

    Warning: don’t get into the habit of rewarding facetious comments from certain anoying Oxford scenesters, it only encourages them (err, us).

    Most generous of you, though. Good luck with the gig.

    yeah well sometimes nice things happen. But thank you. We are really looking forward to starting this series of nights. Something a bit different for The Cellar.

    Wow, I wasn’t expecting that! Unfortunately due to a busy weekend (and a paternal birthday on the 27th) I’ve only just seen the reply! Thanks though Vez, hope it all went well.
