Hi all,
Just wondering if there are any sessions in either Bradford or Stockport, Uk. And if so, when, and who should I contact?
I play old-time mostly, but bluegrass sessions work just fine for me too!
It's a long shot, but thought I'd see what people know.....
Thanks!
Andy

Hi Andy. There are sessions in Leeds and Manchester if those are any good for you? I often go to the Leeds one. I think they just got one going in Todmorden as well.

Thanks Mark, what are the details for the Leeds and Manchester ones? They may fit my plans. Worth having a look anyway.

Thanks!

Leeds Session is the last Sunday of every month at The Chemic Tavern, Woodhouse, 2pm til 5.30 ish, run by Simon Robinson. There's a facebook group here: (1) Leeds Old Time Session | Facebook

Manchester is usually the third Sunday of every month at The Carlton Club, Whalley Range, 3pm start. I've never been, but they also have a facebook group: (1) Manchester Old Time Session | Facebook

Both of them are running this Sunday - the Manchester session is happening on the same day as Leeds this month as a one-off - usually they are consecutive weekends. I won't be at Leeds this month, though, as I'm away.

Ok, that's perfect information, thanks Mark. I'll be in Stockport on Sunday, so may try the Manchester session.

Thanks!

Hope you get chance, and enjoy it. Are you based in Fife now? I'll be up in Edinburgh next week and I was wondering if there was anything going on around there?
