Whitchurch Folk Club – Ainsley Hamill

Whitchurch Folk Club – Ainsley Hamill

All the way from Scotland, Ainsley Hamill visits Whitchurch Parish Hall on 8th March 2025 with her third album Fable.

Ainsley is a former finalist in the prestigious BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician competition, and is noted for her “big and intriguing voice with a touch of wildness”. (Jude Rogers in The Guardian)

Her accomplished trio includes Sam Kelly of The Lost Boys, a musician specifically requested in our recent Whitchurch Folk Club audience poll, once a finalist in Britain’s Got Talent and with impeccable folk credentials. Also Toby Shaer, who plays an impossibly large number of instruments and has toured with John McCusker and Cara Dillon as well as being a regular with Honey & The Bear and The Lost Boys.
