Event information

Club Débris is a Quebec-inspired folk band based in London, playing high-energy French-Canadian trad music in brazenly major keys. For those unfamiliar, Québécois folk music is the result of many centuries of mixed influences between French, English, Scottish and Irish dance music, and is accompanied by driving, galloping foot percussion rhythms.

Last year Club Débris played a storming show at Jamboree, with dancing late into the night - join us again for another great night of jolly tunes in our home city!

The band is formed of Will Allen (accordion/fiddle), Maisie Greenwood (fiddle), Duncan Menzies (fiddle/banjo), Will Chamberlain (piano) and Jessie Collins (percussive dance): together, they play no-nonsense tunes with a pro-nonsense attitude.

The support act this evening will be the talented accordion player Elye Cuthbertson, who is a regular fixure at Jamboree's balfolk nights. Elye has been immersing himself in English folk music for 10 years under the guidance of some of the finest teachers of the tradition. With a passion for folk music from throughout Europe as well as the UK, his compositions reflect his varied influences. Elye has a unique approach to the melodeon which he has demonstrated through performances around the country, including his own concert at London’s Royal Albert Hall.
