Ewan McLennan + The Foxglove Trio + Ian Kennedy & Sarah Lloyd: The Goose Is Out! The Ivy House, 40 Stuart Road SE15 3BE.


Doors open 7pm. Tickets available over the bar at the Ivy House, on the night where available and in advance from http://www.wegottickets.com/thegooseisout


It is always a pleasure to welcome Ewan McLennan to the Goose. We first came across him back in the day when a demo CD was thrust into our hand at the end of a concert (we won?t embarrass him by saying who thrust it ? oh, OK, we will ? it was his mum 😀 ) We hadn?t met Ewan at that point.


As soon as we heard it, we booked him to support Faustus ? we were still holding our concerts at DHFC at that point. After that, Ewan headlined at a couple of our club nights, and then at concerts, including our refugee benefit concert in January 2016, where he was joint headliner with Thomas McCarthy.


Ewan McLennan has, in a short space of time, come to be known as a guitarist at the forefront of his generation; a troubadour, balladeer and storyteller cut in the old style; a singer who can move audiences with his passion and pathos; and a songwriter for whom social justice is still a burning issue.


Most recently, Ewan has been working with the writer George Monbiot on a project ?Breaking the Spell of Loneliness?, which has been featured on television as well as at live gigs around the country. Tonight Ewan is appearing solo, and we are really looking forward to it.



The Foxglove Trio is a group of multi-instrumentalists who perform mostly traditional songs from around the British Isles in English and Welsh. Gathering material from sessions, published song collections and contemporary artists, these talented musicians are making a name for themselves on the UK folk scene for their beautiful harmonies, creative new arrangements and engaging live performances.



Many of you will know Ian Kennedy and Sarah,Lloyd who have been going from strength to strength since starting to come to our singarounds way back when we first began.


They are a real part of the Goose family (well they aren?t related to Nyge and Sue, obviously, at least not as far as we know 🙂 ) and we are delighted that they are able to replace Aimee and Emmie who are no longer able to sing tonight.

    • It was looking very faded and not a patch on how it looked originally. I’d have preferred to see it re-done but seeing as that’s no longer an option, another mural would look good there. 
    • I really enjoyed the play at the National Theatre Nye (Bevan) about the politician and the establishment of the NHS.  He had to seriously compromise including some element of the private sector, GP practices, pharmacies being independent businesses, and consultants keeping on private work  The days that a working class person from the valleys can be on the Cabinet are all but gone.  But even then he was an outlier
    • If it's bothering you, play them at their own game. Get a giant dummy camera, something really obvious and point towards wherever breaches their privacy. If they have an issue, you can then advise they're breaching your privacy and your camera is fake and it was just a safety deterrent. 
    • I've just moved into the area and needed some help getting rid of endless packaging and boxes following our move. I called AFA waste and they came within 15 minutes. Very friendly, efficient and helpful, and a decent quote too. I'd highly recommend them.
