Visiting Musician at Baskie

When Brian is out and about, he is always encouraging people he meets to go to the Baskerville Hall acoustic sessions. Maybe one in ten actually take him up on it. On this occasion, though, he was walking Denzel the Staffie down by the river, and stopped to talk to a young man mending his car. While they were chatting a lady with a dog passed by, and he got talking to her as well - and invited her over to the Baskie on Wednesday evening.
She came, with her dog Gwillim, who she bought in Crickhowell (so had to have a Welsh name). Her name was Jane, and she was from Canada.
The evening started slowly, but gradually filled up, with a lot of newcomers, which was nice to see - several people were singing unaccompanied, and there was a lot more folk music in the mix than we sometimes get. We all liked the Barley Mow song, which named all the measurements of liquid from a barrel right down to smaller than a gill (that's an eighth of a pint in pre-decimal measurements), very fast and all in one breath!
Jane from Canada had to borrow a guitar when it was her turn in the circle, and sang some of her own songs, which went down well. She got chatting to some of the other musicians, too - and even bought one of Bob's CDs.
The next morning, Brian looked her up on the Internet, and it turns out that she's a well-known singer songwriter in Canada, Jane Siberry. She'll be in Shrewsbury soon, doing gigs at one of the cafes there, and she's worth looking out for.
