Reg Meuross @ Islington Folk Club

Reg is widely recognised as one of our very finest writers and a top-class performer. Expect superior original songs and singing – The organisers are delighted to welcome him back to the Club.

‘A mighty songwriter and an equally fine singer’ Martin Carthy
‘Classic, with echoes of early Dylan, Tom Paxton and Leonard Cohen’ The Guardian

The breadth and depth of Reg Meuross’s material is unparalleled in contemporary folk: songs about forgotten heroes, famous names, folk legends, the climate emergency, tales from the kitchen sink and news from the world stage; if something needs to be sung about then Reg Meuross has a song for it. 

Reg is touring with songs of history, protest, love, loss, and legend from 14 releases and some brand new songs from two forthcoming song cycles: Fire & Dust and Stolen From God.

Masterfully accompanying himself on his ‘44 Martin six-string guitar, harmonica, tenor guitar, banjo and dulcimer and captivating audiences with his beautiful tenor voice, witnessing a Reg Meuross performance is to experience a journey into the heart, soul and songs of one of England’s finest writers.

The Islington Folk Club is an old-established club which has met at various venues since the early 1970s. Its continuing aim is to present the best available artists, from the fiercely traditional to the frankly eccentric. The professional guest artists are supported every week by the house band – The Angel Band – and by resident singers.

The club is now meeting (normally in the upstairs room) at:

The Brewhouse & Kitchen
2a Corsica Street,
London,
