Come sing with us!

Singing Nettles is a community acapella folk song group. All ages and abilities are welcome.

This regular folk singing group, meeting twice/month, is a lovely opportunity to learn folk songs, sing in community, and build connections. No commitment is required, though the more we sing, the more we build our individual and collective voices!

11/7: Songs of Jean Ritchie pt 1 with Rebecca

Each meeting of the Singing Nettles begins with a participatory workshop to learn new songs and skills from a rotating cast of teachers. After the hour long skillshare workshop, an open singing circle will arise, wherein anyone may lead a song or perform a ballad for the group. Workshop teachers bring songs from a variety of cultures, not always but mostly stemming from American and European folk traditions. Depending on the theme of the evening, we may focus on harmonies, vocal technique, foreign language lyrics, or history of songs and traditions.

We welcome you to come engage with this friendly singing community, hosted at the lovely premises of Hedgerow Herb Co.
