About the event
with support from ELZABETH FORRESTER and TOM KELLY
Simply one of the best acappella groups on the UK folk scene, as well as playing a range of instruments, MELROSE QUARTET are made up of two well-loved folk duos, NANCY KERR & JAMES FAGAN and JESS & RICH ARROWSMITH.
Based in Sheffield, they have a decade of gigs behind them, and vast collective experience as workshop leaders as well as performers. They are also a ceilidh band and the Patrons of Whiby Folk Week.
ELIZABETH FORRESTER is a great and original local singer who was a regular at Goose events before her children arrived! We are delighted to see her back on The Ivy House stage tonight!
TOM KELLY is not a local (to us!) man - but conveniently (for us!) his daughter lives round the corner from The Ivy House!
We first came across Tom's excellent singing when he joined our Zoom Singarounds during lockdown. We are pleased that he is able to stay with his daughter and support Melrose Quartet tonight!
