Folk club has double header

The Troubadour Folk Club will feature a "double-header" on Saturday, March 29, with poet Arch Bishop and singer Jeffrey Schollar and his band

"Arch, the prince of the unpronounceable, the inimitable, irrepressible and ever so slightly irreverent, will have your emotions on the end of his fingertips as he goes through his huge repertoire of poetry, yarns and verse," said Troubadour publicity officer Ms Willy Timmerman.

"After Arch has woven his web of laughter and tears, the increasingly popular Jeffrey Schollar and his band will perform.

"Jeffrey Schollar is an awkward man to say the very least.

"After being questioned on why he writes such degrading songs about his own life, he replied 'I make fun of myself because I've got a low self esteem. I also dislike my girlfriend'.

"Jeffrey Schollar writes songs about his own troubles (or lack thereof), be they about his unfortunate social life, paranoia about his own self worth, or his seemingly awful girlfriend.

"He is a singer/songwriter that you will either love or hate."

Ms Timmerman said there would also be ample opportunities for floor spots.

The event will begin at 7pm on Saturday, March 29, at the CWA Hall, Woy Woy.
