​
WHY NUNC?
Nunc is latin for "Now"-and is intended to reflect new beginnings after previous bands  folded. Flossy is Geoff's Niece.  Niece+Uncle=???.  Someone recently pointed out, in a reference to our shirts, Nunc could also be an acronym for "Never under nine colours." 

WHERE CAN WE SEE THEM?
        As  Nuneaton Folk Club's  Resident "House Band"  they open  and compere both halves on the first Wednesday of every month at NFC at The Queen's Hall,  Nuneaton.  As part of DruncMonkey they headline  Tamworth Beer Festival September 8th, Anker Blues Jamm October 23rd and play support to Tir Na Nog at The Queens Hall November 14th.
      They  have also appeared at Warwick, Bedworth,  Atherstone and Stockton Folk Clubs. Other venues they have played include  Willow and Tool's Music Parlour, (Long Itchington), The Tump Folk Club, Sty Folk Club, Drapers Bar, The Twisted Barrel Brewery Tap, Ragged Bear Festival, The Broomfield Tavern,(Coventry), Nuneaton Beer Festival, Stonefest 2017, Heart of England Club, Meriden, The Abbey Theatre, The Nursery Tavern, Warwick Words Festival, Standard Triumph Social Club Coventry  and The Anker Inn. They appeared  "live"  at several venues during the 2017 Bedworth Folk Festival. We played  Earlsdon Festival in May 2018 and  closed  Folk On The Water at The Folly Inn, Napton, on June 30th.  
​
WHAT SORT OF MATERIAL?
      Set list includes some traditional folk songs, some of our own originals, some Blues and some Country.  Covers of songs by Neil Young, Crowded House, Sam Cooke, Kasey Chambers, Bonnie Raitt, John Prine, Richard and Linda Thompson, Bob Dylan, The Incredible String Band, Randy Newman,Smokey Robinson,U2 and  Eddi Reader.  Most  songs are adapted to a unique arrangement, with three part harmonies and some  are run together, as  medleys or  segues. This format is popular with audiences who like to sing along.
With contemporary and traditional numbers in any set list, they appeal to a very broad audience.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTq2LMZVFsg​

 WHO ARE DRUNCMONKEY?   We love The Blues and Americana as much as Trad.Arr. We work collaboratively with members of other Bands, including Blues Monkey and Dragonhead's John Harris and sometimes gig together as DruncMonkey.
