On the 3^rd Sunday of each month from 3pm to 5.30pm, the West Australian Folk Federation presents entertainment for the whole family at Jackadder’s Music Club in the Woodlands Reserve Hall, Teakwood Ave, Woodlands, Western Australia. Each month features a special guest artist plus quality support acts.
It gives performers a great opportunity to network and connect with other musicians.

Sunday 20th May will feature the popular Celtic band ‘The Gang of Three’ (four members.)

The music of the Gang of Three spans traditional Irish/Celtic/Australian ballads and reels to U2, Van Morrison and The Whitlams.
They also feature a number of original songs in the traditional style at most performances and have a strong local following. They are singularly unpretentious.

Front man Joff Davies (vocals, citurn, bodran, mandolin and whistles) is ex Press Gang and Fling. He is also a prominent Perth barrister.
Tom Percy (guitar and vocals) and writes most of the Band’s original material. By day he is a prominent Perth Queen’s Counsel.
Alan Ferguson (bass, whistles, guitar and vocals) is arguably Perth’s best known folk musician and a veteran of numerous top bands over the past two decades,
including Quarefellas, Settlers and Colonials.
Matt Stapleton is a lively and talented fiddler and has been with various Perth traditional bands over the past few years. By occupation he is a music teacher.
The Gang have played together and separately at various venues in Ireland, New York, Asia and Paris; as well as interstate and in many parts of country West Australia.

Jackadder’s Music Club was formed in August 2003 at the time that the West Australian Folk Federation was discussing ways to promote Folk Music in the community.

The club encourages ‘live’ family entertainment and is run by Carmel and her husband Eric.

Jackadder’s has grown since its inception and an average of 50 people attend each month. There is a great variety of both professional and amateur performers taking part and often young performers are included in the afternoon’s line-up. It is a great opportunity for like minded musicians to meet up, build friendships and share their love of music.

People of all ages enjoy the shows and are encouraged to join in by the performers. Our oldest performer to date was eighty nine and the youngest seven. All styles of music are encouraged and verse is also popular at the club.

Adults only $8 and children FREE Afternoon included
