Friday 4th February 2022
Teddy Thompson + special Guests, Zak Hobbs
Holywell Music Room
After the disappointment of having to cancel his tour and date at the Holywell Music Room from last year, we are delighted to say that Teddy Thompson returns to Oxford for the third time to a venue he loves to play in. He released his latest album last year called 'Heartbreaker Please' to much critical acclaim and all being well he will get to tour it for a UK audience and the people of Oxford again. He sold out the last show he played there and as you might expect will do the same again this time. Teddy has a strong loyal following so don't wait to buy your ticket because once they are gone, that's it. I am working on a special support for this show, something I have had in mind for a while and when it happens you might not want to miss it because it is unlikely to happen too many more times in our lifetime. So with Teddy back on the road and the Holywell one of his destinations, get your ticket, mark your diary and prepare for something that little bit special. If for whatever reason the tour is cancelled, it will be rescheduled and tickets will be honoured for the new date but let's stay positive and hope all goes well.
Tickets £22.50 in advance, £26 on the door

The Duchess and Sir Julian
Saturday 19th March 2022
Charlie Dore + Julian Littman support Lisa Doscher
Quaker Meeting House
Multi-award winner Charlie Dore returns to the heart of Oxford, this time to the Quaker Meeting House and brings with her a genre-defying evening of ‘intriguingly other’ eclectic, contemporary folk - bursting with earworms and crunchy lyrics
Charlie and her long-time collaborator Julian Littman of Steeleye Span will swap guitars, piano, mandolin, harmonium, ukuleles, banjo and stories as they showcase songs from her newest album, ‘Like Animals’ alongside favourites from the past seven albums. Even though this show is in Spring - March 19th, the pair also plan to fly in the face of seasonal tradition and share 3 songs from her popular newest release, the EP ‘The Man Who Built Christmas’ on the basis that a good song isn’t just for Christmas. One of the UK's most respected songwriters, Charlie has written for the good and the great, including Tina Turner, George Harrison, Celine Dion and Paul Carrack, but her live shows reveal that she keeps the best songs for herself.
‘A gift for melody, lyrically brave, poignant, entertaining, original.’ The Guardian ****
‘A voice like Kate McGarrigle meets Dory Previn. Wonderful.’ Mike Harding
‘…this sublime album...earnest and witty, tender and cynical all at the same time.’ RnR Magazine
Charlie is a long time supporter of Oxford Music and Folk as we are a long time supporter of Charlie. We are always delighted to welcome her to Oxford and this occasion to a venue she has never played before. Coal join Charlie and Julian as they play tracks from the new album and a Xmas treat or two.
Tickets £15 in advance, £18 on the door. Tickets on sale now here.

We at Oxford music and folk are thrilled to be hosting the first ever gig by Charm of Finches as they play the UK for the first time. Mabel and Ivy are incredible talented sisters who write their own material and will soon be releasing their brand new third album, 'Wonderful Oblivion.

This tour has been in the making for sometime now and everything permitting, we hope to welcome them to British shores in 2022.
