AS FROM NOVEMBER THE MUSIC CLUB WILL CHANGE TO THURSDAYS. AT 8-PM THANKS .... Jim


Welcome to Blakewood, home of the Blue Coconut Club. Founded in 1987 as a venue where one can enjoy a whole range of acoustic music from jazz to blues, folk and country and more in a friendly, relaxed style and comfortable surroundings. Playing host to some of the best musicians around, the club has an enviable reputation as 'the' place to play and the 'best' place to listen and enjoy! A little bit 'off-beat' and a bit off the 'beaten track' but well worth a visit (1 mile down Blackgate Lane, 1 mile North of Pulborough off the A29)
The Club usually meets on a Monday/Friday night but may vary so please check first.

For your free membership, dates and guest list, please send your email address to jimlee@blakewood.co.uk to receive regular updates.

Many thanks, Jim
