After ending my enjoyable time with CSI:Halifax, to concentrate on Guitar for a while, I sought other opportunities to keep singing. I saw Louise's well named 'Singing For Fun' Group listed on Holmfirth Info.. I started attending in 2017 and found this to be was very different with a focus on world music, rounds, harmonies and traditional folk songs.
The group has been based in four different Holme Valley locations since I joined:
1. Hope Bank Works ~ Honley
2. Full Life Church ~ Thongsbridge
3. Holmfirth Tech ~ Holmfirth
4. In our homes, online, via Zoom
The group did perform at Holmfirth Folk Festival but diary clashes meant that I missed those events. I did manage though to perform with them at Holmfirth Tech concerts, The Box Office Bar at Holmfirth Picture Drome for Open Mic Nights. Six of us also participated in the 'Sing for Water' - Water Aid fundraiser in the Huddersfield Market Hall. Some of those concerts provided the opportunity to perform solo too, with acoustic guitar and vocals, including a couple of my original songs 'Sign on Again' and 'Out of Order'.
