Club members will also feature at the St Albans Folk Festival taking place at St Albans from April 22 to 25.
They will perform either individually or in groups and are also involved in organizing the event.
The club will hold a Bob Dylan tribute concert at the Peninsula Theatre on Mothers' Day, May 8.
