Held in a section of the pub, around forty folk club members were treated to over an hour of Jackie’s music. Her first ever solo performance too! Although she was confined to a corner of the room, Jackie was a delight to watch and listen to. Her voice is so clear and pure, we thoroughly enjoyed the evening.
