Singing Mamas

There are no auditions, no solos, no reading music. Just simple songs taught by ear. Clara sings the songs line by line and the group echo it back, until everyone knows it off by heart - then we might add a harmony or two! All women are welcome, of all ages and life stages. We're creating the much-needed village for new mums in our community. Each session includes tea, cake, calm, connection, and gorgeous harmony songs. Singing Mamas Central Beds is held every Wednesday morning (term time) 10:30 - 12:00 at Potton Hall for All.

More about Broom

Bedfordshire, England

Broom sits quietly in Bedfordshire with just enough charm to keep a Saturday afternoon from dragging. The White Horse has been serving up live music and community chats for years, so there's usually a gig or a quiz waiting if you pop round on a rainy day. Not bad for a village that doesn't take itself too seriously. Pub quizzes pop up through the week and the odd open mic night keeps things interesting. Near Here pulls it all into one place so you're not stuck checking a dozen websites on a Sunday evening.
