FANS of folk music will not be disappointed at Pavilions Teignmouth who are offering an autumnal abundance of live music in the line up of live music and theatre.

One of the few benefits of the last years events, Jamie Smith’s Mabon have extended their tour allowing another last chance to see them live with their ‘The Last Huzzah! Again!’ show which can be seen at Pavilions on Friday, October 29 at 7.30pm.

The music of Jamie Smith’s Mabon is well described as original, interceltic world music.  Composed by frontman Jamie Smith, and brought to life by five highly accomplished musicians, it draws inspiration directly from the traditional folk music of the Celtic countries: a true exploration of forms and styles found in Celtic music and their forging into something bold and new.

Through a myriad of twists and turns, from thoughtful lyrics to joyful jigs, here is a band that can take you on an emotional journey: expect to witness the joy of creating music expressed in dynamic, virtuosic performance.

The following evening Saturday, October 30, sees Scotland’s The Tannahill Weavers arrive with their diverse repertoire of Celtic music. You can expect fire-driven instrumentals, topical songs, foot-stomping reels and jigs, and original ballads and lullabies from one of Scotland’s premiere traditional bands. They have been nominated for both Folk Album of the Year and Folk Band of the Year in Scotland and so a fantastic evening of traditional musicis very much on the cards

If Big Band is more your style, then tickets are already flying out for the return of the ever-popular AJ’s Big Band. The south west’s premier swing band will be performing an afternoon of classics of the ‘30s and ‘40s, on Sunday, November 7 at 3pm.

For theatre-lovers, the halloween season brings three lost gothic spine-tinglers from the great Victorian female writers.

Rebecca Vaughan (Christmas Gothic, Jane Eyre: An Autobiography, I, Elizabeth, Austen’s Women) is directed by Olivier Award Winner, Guy Masterson (Morecambe), in Female Gothic at the venue on Saturday, November 6 at 7:30pm. In the dark between life and death, a haunted woman tells strange and terrifying tales; eerie stories, dusty and forgotten. Until now…
