 Jackie Oates in Concert accompanied by Mike Cosgrave plus support from Si Barron in South Brent Village Hall at 7.30pm (doors open 7.00pm).

A welcome return to Devon for singer and fiddle player Jackie Oates, whose pure, haunting singing style established her at the forefront of the folk scene.

As well as playing solo and with her own band, she was a member of the super-group 'The Imagined Village'.

Having won two BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards in 2009, she now has six highly acclaimed studio albums to her name and her seventh, 'The Joy of Living' will be released in 2018.

She will be accompanied by multi-instrumentalist Mike Cosgrove, of 'Cosgrave and Banks'.

Si Barron is a fine singer, a great interpreter of traditional and contemporary folk songs and a gifted guitarist who also plays dulcimer and harmonium.
