SUMMARY:Sing:Quiet Corner Song Swap
DESCRIPTION:After the death of Pete Seeger in 2014\, a small group of his admirers joined together to celebrate his life with a sing-along concert at the Hampton Grange. The event was a huge success and gave birth to SING:The Quiet Corner Song Swap. There is no charge and lyrics are available for most songs. They frequently use the folk “hymnal”\, Rise Up Singing and\, its sequel\, Rise Again for song lyrics. Participants are encouraged to lead their favorite songs or suggest them to the song leaders of the evening. Bring your voices\, your instruments\, and your ears. This is specifically a night for singing\, so please\, no fiddle tunes or songs without a place to join in. Learn more on the SING! Quiet Corner Song Swap Facebook Page. This program was started by Sally Rogers and is currently hosted by Tom French along with other special guests.
