Barbara Dymock & Chris Marra
3rd Time Lucky !! The Dean's new beer garden has now been completed ands the construction work that had stymied Barbara and Chris performing in June is now done and dusted and, at last, we can welcome them back to the Nitten Stage. Barbara has two acclaimed solo albums under her belt;: Hilbert’s Hotel and Leaf an’ Thorn., the latter produced by Chris. He, himself, has been a musician since his teens, working in many distinct fields from big hair rock to sophisticated pop. Much of his time was spent recording and performing with his brother Michael Marra, producing albums for Michael and the legendary Saint Andrew. It's sure to be a fabulous evening of songs, stories and wondrous musicianship. Make sure you're there.

Important Reminder: Change of Time for Singaround Sessions. July & August
It has been proposed that during the summer months of July and August, when we do not host any guest nights, the singaround sessions should commence at 8:00pm and finish promptly at 10:30pm. We will be implementing this, on a trial basis, commencing on Thursday 2nd July and continuing until Thursday 27th August. Please note that this is not, at this time, a permanent change. The success of the trial will be reviewed by the committee later in the year and it proves sufficiently popular we may adopt it on a permanent basis.

3rd December 2026
Stephen and Pernille Quigg
Stephen and Pernille share a common feeling for the tradition of folksong. The combination of the two voices in close harmony in songs whether traditional or contemporary interspersed with anecdotes and a touch of humour has received much praise from both audiences and organisers. A concert with The Quiggs is a chance to hear folksong in its original form - simple, yet highly expressive, beautiful harmonies and songs that seek the audience's participation.
