CV Folk Presents Upclose & Acoustic October
Friday 10th October 2025

Up Close and Acoustic with Marion Fleetwood

An evening of music, chat and revelastion presented by CVFolk

 

CV Folk offers another fascinating glimpse into the ‘inside story’ of a leading act on the local folk circuit. We’re delighted to welcome acclaimed multi-instrumentalist and singer, Marion Fleetwood to the intimate environment of the Albany Theatre’s Courtyard Studio. As well as performing some of her impressive repertoire of songs and tunes, she will be interviewed by our resident ‘interrogator’, the celebrated folk musician and podcaster, Bill Bates.

Marion (or ‘Mabel’ as she became known) first came to many people’s attention as superb fiddle player and vocalist for Warwickshire folk-rock band Meet On The Ledge. Now she is busy in several notable line-ups, including The Sandy Denny Project, Feast of Fiddles, and songwriter Reg Meuross’s Woody Guthrie project, Fire & Dust. She also hosts the ‘Women’s Choir In A Day’ sessions in Stratford-upon-Avon.

The idea behind ‘Up Close & Acoustic’ is to create a more insightful and interactive experience of music by revealing more of what inspires and motivates the musician. The format worked well for audience and performers alike when we launched it in June, and more well-known folk acts have offered to perform in future events while being subjected to Bill’s probing questions!

The show begins 7.30pm and tickets are £14.50 or £10.50 concessions (including students and pensioners). The event is expected to run until approximately 10pm.
