Music

There is a rich and thriving Live Music scene in the Charente. We will endeavour to keep you up to date with everything that's going on in the region.
But you can help, too! If you know of an event that you think should be posted here - please let us know.

Here's this week's news from the Dixie.

Friday music this week is from Chris Pearline, a fantastic French musician who plays English/French Folk-Blues. Always a great evening.

Saturday night is Open Night, our regular get-together for musicians to have a blow in a friendly, receptive atmosphere. A good night for non-players, too. Unexpected delights await.

A reminder that Wednesday is line-dancing night. Polish up you're dancing boots and come and have a go.

And on Thursday we have live dinner-jazz in our dining room.
