11 July 2025 – Skinny Dennis
The Levin Folk Music Club meets again Friday 11 July with special guest Skinny Dennis.
Eric Daubé and Glenn Barclay have been playing and singing together for many years and their most recent incarnation is as ‘Skinny Dennis’ – a duo that takes its name from a real-life character in Guy Clark’s ‘LA Freeway’.
That song has played an important part in Eric and Glenn’s repertoire for a long time, whether performing as a duo or as part of the Mad Dog Margaritas (a group that also took its name from a Guy Clark song). While these band names hint at an Americana sound these days they travel a slightly broader musical path, playing a mix of traditional/old and contemporary tunes, comprised of covers and originals.
Eric’s wonderful singing is complemented by Glenn’s guitar and occasional mandolin – a combination honed over years of playing together and one we hope you will enjoy.
Come and find out for yourself at: Levin Folk Music Club, Friday May 9th at the Horowhenua Scottish Society Hall, 155 Bartholomew Road, corner Bartholomew Road and Middlesex Street, Levin.
Doors open at 7:00 pm and the evening begins at 7:30 pm with a blackboard of performers, where there is an opportunity for musicians to put their name up for an item. The guests perform after supper and the drawing of the raffle.
Admission, which includes a light supper, is $10 for members, $15 for non-members and $3 for students. Cash only (no eftpos facilities).
