Introduction

Welcome to The Wesley Centre, Maltby, now home to The Rock, a long-standing folk club that has enjoyed over 35 years of live folk, roots and acoustic music.

The original Rock opened in September 1974 in the back room of a pub in the quaint little village of Wentworth, to the West of Rotherham and became established and acknowledged over time by the public and the artists themselves as one of the best folk clubs in the North of England, resulting in winning Best Folk Club in the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, 2004.

Twin sisters Charlotte and Laura Carrivick have grown up playing and writing music together.  Their unique style shows their strong bluegrass influence without obscuring their English roots.  With tight harmonies that only siblings can achieve, they perform their original songs on guitar, fiddle, mandolin, dobro and clawhammer banjo.  Just wait 'til you see them!!

Tickets £10 (£8 Members/Concessions)

It’s great news to see that the Jon Strong Band has got back together.  Featuring original members Duncan Waller on bass and Roy Whyke on drums.  Jon Strong as a solo performer has toured with Van Morrison and Ry Cooder amongst many more and as the great Tom Robinson says "If "Honest Soldier" had been released with the name Peter Gabriel on the cover, it would have been hailed as a major art work."  Praise indeed.  For sheer power and passion this gig should not be missed.

Tickets £10 (£8 Members/Concessions)
