Humph Hall/Loosely Woven Newsletter 375

Another year begins for Humph Hall

As foreshadowed, we had a number of wonderful acts here at Humph Hall during 2023 and many more to come this year!

I've updated the alphabetical listing of Humph Hall artists that I originally put together to celebrate Humph Hall's 10th birthday back in 2015 (see below).  I've also updated the chronological list of Loosely Woven concerts. Clicking on the artist's names and the Loosely Woven concert names will take you to YouTube video clips.

If you haven't already done so, you might like to watch Humph's 10th Birthday Bash Slideshow which includes a slide for each of the 300 odd events that took place during Humph Hall's first 10 years.

See you soon . . .

Join Loosely Woven!

Loosely Woven is the community-based group of musicians that I have coordinated for over 28 years and the chief reason Gial and I bought the former Allambie Heights Uniting Church and created Humph Hall in the first place.

Loosely Woven puts together 3 or 4 shows each year and performs them all over the place - just for fun, never for money!

So, if you play an instrument or sing (everyone sings!) then why not consider participating in a Loosely Woven concert.  Give me a call if you'd like more information.
