Pilgrims' Way replace stranded Jez Lowe

Jez Lowe has been trapped in New York by Hurricane Sandy and is unable to appear at the Bothy this Friday. Young folk trio, Pilgrims' Way, have stepped in at very short notice and will be appearing in his place. The band is named after the Rudyard Kipling poem, which was set to music by the great Peter Bellamy; they state that their aim is to present gimmick-free English folk of the finest kind.

This is a Friday Special at the Bothy Folk Club, Park Golf Club, Park Road West, Southport, PR9 0JS. Click here for on line tickets; the club house sells Thwaites real ale. 8.00 p.m. is the start time.

Here's a sample of what they do:
