‘Shadows on the Wall’ by Toby Wood

 ‘Shadows on the Wall’ is a compilation of Toby’s reviews and photographs of concerts at The Barn, compiled over the last decade and beyond. The reviews have been appreciated by artists and are sometimes published in the folk press.

Lots of pictures taken at the Barn, help to tell the story.

Since many artists and bands return to the Barn, this book can be an invaluable reference to remind you about previous visits. A minimum donation of £5 will enable you to catch up on your reading and also support a worthy local charity.

The book has been sponsored by Traditional Music & Song at The Barn but all proceeds are going to Dementia Support, South Lincs.

Copies will be on sale at The Barn at each of our monthly sessions.

Congratulations to Toby for producing such a quality publication…and a real bargain.

200th Concert With Granny’s Attic

The Concert on November 28th was our 200th concert covering most of the previous 20 years. Our first show at the Barn was in November 2004 with Les Barker who came back to the Barn as part of a rare double bill with Haddo (Will and Nicky Pound).

For many years Toby Wood has written a review of each show and taken photos of the artists performing in the Barn. We have published the reviews here and in the book Shadows on the Wall mentioned above.

As part of our celebrations Toby has taken the names of all of the artists who have been with us over the last 20 years and created this intricate word cloud.

At the end of our 200th show, everyone was given a presentation card of the word cloud.

We have a few copies of both the Word Cloud and Shadows on the Wall.
