Folk Night presents Dave and Daunt
-Look forward to a night of clever quips and intricate melodies as beloved duo Dave Penney and Daunt Lee unite for a night of fun and song!
The Ship Pub
Presented by the Newfoundland & Labrador Folk Arts Society, Folk Night at the Ship is St. John’s longest continually running live music event (it started in 1976!) and regularly draws a sizeable crowd each Wednesday night; sometimes 100 souls and rarely less than 50. The music ranges from solo songwriters, traditional Newfoundland, blues, klezmer and all styles in between.
There are often special events such as the Folk Festival Launch, themed evenings, open mike nights and one Wednesday of every month is reserved for a traditional tune session that often has 20 or more players in attendance.
And if that isn’t enough, we often have door prizes in the form of gift certificates from our sponsors plus various CDS, artist merch and concert tickets from time to time.
Folk Night starts at 9 p.m. (yes, it really does!) and cover is $10 most nights with the exception of tune sessions and certain special events.
Look forward to a night of clever quips and intricate melodies as beloved duo Dave Penney and Daunt Lee unite for a night of fun and song!

Enjoy a night of prog-folk with Kyla Tilley as she constructs tales true and tall of fantastic exploits, mundane tasks, and moderate misadventure delivered with a mix of vocal fusillades, chaotic finger-picking, and kaleidoscopic rhythms, punctuated with scintillating melodies and moments of serenity.
