The Final Fridays season of live music at Aquarius Golf club continues through the summer with another highlight of live music, with free admission. This Friday, Hungry Grass will be playing an extended set of traditional and contemporary Irish music, in their own, hugely entertaining and musically attacking style.


Hungry Grass is an established and tight-knit unit of hugely accomplished musicians who perform across the UK and Europe, and are widely regarded as one of the finest Irish bands out there.


A five-piece who play their own brand of energised traditional Irish and original music, from fast and furious reels to soulful ballads with a strong emphasis on improvisation and spontaneity. Five musicians who played the London circuit over the last decade, then met at the top of their circles and came together to create the sound known today by their followers as ?goat music?.


?With an ultimate respect to the old music and where the music is going to, we can merely steer it, enjoy it, shape it and add to it? For it will out-live us all.?

?It?s music not just to suffice the masses, but to fill the glasses, call the shots and make people laugh.?


Peter Coughlan, lead vocalist, has a powerful, poetic Irish voice that moves his audiences and has led to comparisons with some of Ireland?s greatest folk singers. He is regarded as a once in a generation Irish ballad singing hero who breathes powerful sincerity, grace and beauty into every song he sings. If you haven?t seen him sing live yet, now you have the chance. So do so. Seriously.


The golf club?s intimate surroundings and fine acoustics will make this a truly unforgettable evening of the very best in live music with very distinctive Gaelic roots. Hungry Grass is looking forward to a return to the Aquarius, where they headlined at last year?s ?Unplugged? mini-festival.


Once again, we hope to repeat (or even exceed) the awesome success of the Hit Men (UK) at last month?s Final Friday, and hope to see many of the crowd that came to enjoy that phenomenal night returning for another great night of live music.


Hungry Grass always pulls a crowd wherever they perform, and hopefully will attract a few fans from further afield than the local neighbourhood to the Aquarius experience.


Music will start at around 8.00pm, and admission, as for all of the Final Fridays events, is FREE.


If you have a taste for the raucous, rebel rousing sounds of one of the finest traditional Irish bands in the country, then get along to Aquarius Golf Club for a night of pure musical energy and astonishing live performance.


Aquarius Golf Club is found through a gate at the end of Marmora Road, SE22 0RY.


Copious street parking space outside the club. Bus routes 63 and 363. Nearest station Honor Oak.

      WARNING . Please feed the birds in your garden

      Great shout. They do need the extra fat when it’s winter, but don’t use fat balls from April as they are dangerous for nestlings as the babies can choke on lumps of the fat. When it gets milder switch to suet pellets as they are harder and don’t melt (the grease is bad for feathers.

      Rather alarmist. There is unlikely to be snow this week, but even if there is that is natural and wildlife adjust accordingly. There are fewer insects to eat due to what humans have done to the planet over the decades.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations  In particular: Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: Agricultural Chemicals: Climate Change: Pollution: Invasive Species: There is even a case for not feeding birds due to the spread of disease through feeders, greenfinch population was decimated.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jan/24/should-we-stop-feeding-birds-what-happens-if-we-do-and-does-it-spread-disease   I do feed the birds but keeping a watching eye on the evidence.   And I try to grow insect and bird friendly plants including attempts at a meadow.   There could also be an argument for not keeping cats as these may decimate bird populations.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/14/cats-kill-birds-wildlife-keep-indoors   You will need squirrel proof feeders and even then you may have the starlings and green squwaky things eating most of the food left out for small birds.

      Apparently this year due to the weather there are fewer insects for the birds to eat. So please if you don’t usually buy fat balls & seeds to put out (in safe places to avoid the cats ) a plentiful supply . They really need it this year, especially with snow forecast later this week.    Thankyou

      Police Incident outside Rose Fish/Parade East Dulwich Roas

      I hope she and the rider of the bike are ok. I feel its understandable that locals may be concerned when they see a road taped off and police presence.
