THE
KIMBERLEYS

Hello Acoustic
Clubbers Last time we were
delighted to open the 2026 Spring Season with the wonderful traditional folk
duo The Kimberleys.

Isobelle and Jim have
been a major fixture on the folk scene for many years because of their
complete mastery of the genre. They are incredible individual musicians and
singers who combined seamlessly to deliver a full concert. This gave not only
full range to their extensive and original repertoire, but also gave us the
background and heritage of many of the songs they performed. Isobelle has a
distinctive and truly unique voice that gives such range, depth and meaning.
Her guitar playing is the counter point to Jim’s more traditional guitar work
which when combined with his intuitive and compelling harmonies fills the
songs brilliantly. The whole experience
was one of joyful music interspersed with a highly interesting narrative and
the 70-minute concert simply flew by. From start to finish – including a
magical version of Streets of London – the time passed so quickly. Many thanks to The
Kimberleys for such a compelling and brilliant Showcase Concert and what a
start to 2026!! We were delighted that
we had full support from Bill Tarran Host and M/C, Steve Warner
and a four song set from our very favourite soft rock combo JONO. |

Grateful thanks to Jaiden for his sterling work on the
Sound Desk and much appreciation to all the staff and volunteers who go to
make the SMA such a wonderful welcoming venue. |
