An intimate conversation with a unique artist who has carved a special place in the folk music of both the UK and the USA.
Peggy Seeger's story is one of artistic brilliance and relentless advocacy. As a pivotal figure in the folk revival movements, her contributions have shaped the genre and inspired countless artists. Come to hear Peggy talk about her formative years, her experiences in a musically rich family, and her collaborations with major figures in the folk scene. The discussion will also delve into her musical legacy, exploring her role as a trailblazer in using music as a medium for social commentary and change.
Now in her late 80s, Peggy’s light burns as brightly as ever. This is an unmissable event for fans of folk music and anyone inspired by the power of art to drive social change. Peggy Seeger's narrative is not just about music; it's about passion, resilience, and the enduring impact of a life dedicated to artistic and social expression.
“Peggy Seeger’s life is the stuff of a rip-roaring blockbuster…an illuminating, witty, revelatory and unflinchingly candid account, presented in vivid vignettes and nonchalant anecdotes, often funny, sometimes shocking.”’ Mojo Magazine
FYI:
We have noticed an increasing number of scams / fake tickets for our events recently (especially purchased from social media). We do our best to monitor our social media pages and delete posts from scam ticket sellers, but some still manage to slip the net as we are a small team and do not have the capacity to constantly monitor all of our event pages on social media.
We never accept tickets purchased from unofficial ticket agents or social media platforms.
If an event is sold out – we can refund ticket holders wanting to return tickets provided we have a guaranteed buyer on the waiting list and it is before Friday 12pm on the weekend of the event. Therefore there is never a need to buy from anywhere except for official ticket selling sites (our website, Headfirst, Seetickets. Ticketsellers, Skiddle, Eventbrite or any site that is linked on our website for the event). If in doubt, please contact us before making any purchases.
To avoid disappointment - never buy from an unofficial ticket agent / seller!
