We think the audience said it better than we ever could… ❤️

Joe Broughton’s Folk Conservatoire brought an incredible afternoon of live music to Wolverhampton Arts Centre at the weekend, and judging by the lovely comments, it struck quite a chord.

Joyful, uplifting and absolutely packed with talent.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, and of course to all the brilliant musicians who FILLED the venue with such fantastic music.

Thanks to Chris Close for footage 🎥
