The Club offer an opportunity for instrumentalists and singers, performing solo or in any size of band -including choirs – to display and improve their talents and abilities before an audience in an amplified theatre setting.
Performers are able to get further information and book a slot by contacting Verity on: 07722 244952, you can leave a voicemail, or text.
An excellent sound system and lighting is provided with a resident engineer, together with a stage area. It is simply a case of plug in and play!
Each month there is a different host for the evening who also has an extended guest spot, and can invite their friends to perform too. Each booked-in performer will have around 10 minutes for their songs, and we will endeavour to keep two slots open for walk-ins on the evening.
The public are warmly invited to join the audience.
The club is able to offer support to artists wishing to promote their own concert in the Clifford Room of the Barnfield Theatre. Artists choose their admission charge and the tickets are sold through the box office with the usual deduction for the room hire and admin charges. The club is able to publicise any concert on club nights, and the Theatre can offer assistance with publicity with sufficient notice. We can also offer our Bose P/A system with sound engineer, for a reasonable additional charge.
The Barnfield Music Club developed in 2004 from an idea that the Exeter area needed something a bit different than the existing excellent folk clubs. Mick Burch approached the well known and long established Barnfield Theatre in the centre of Exeter and it was agreed that the Clifford Room would be equipped with a well lit stage, an excellent Bose sound system, plus experienced & helpful technical crew. The Clifford Room would be made available on the first Friday of every month. Exeter’s first “Open Mic” club was born. Here was a chance for established local artists and newcomers to hone their craft and perform to an audience in a well equipped concert environment. Local retailers Market Carpets Ltd agreed to sponsor the club and help with expenditure. Hundreds of performers have since performed at the club watched by a loyal audience.
