Joe’s Mum’s Musical Circus

About Me

The Circus has left town.

Joe's Musical Circus offers a showcase for singer-songwriters, occasionally featuring established performers including the odd comedian.

Originally started in June 2005 as 'Raffles singer-songwriter night'. We became 'Joe's Musical Circus' when we moved (after one night at the 'Castle Inn') into the cave in the Hand and Heart. After a break we took up residence at the Chameleon until February 2008.

If anyone has a better recollection of dates please let us know

We have held our last gig (for now) at the Hand & Heart Gallery on Derby Road.

look out for special nights in the new year!
