The Contemporary Music Group was set up in September 2013 and meets on the last Monday of the month (when the calendar allows us).
The group is an active vibrant group that aims to Learn, Laugh and Live and we certainly do that!
Each session has a theme – playing records e.g. people’s names /places/colours etc. members email their favourite tunes and suggestions to Adam Walter. DJ Adam coordinates the proceedings and brings to the group a variety of artists and their music plus some history behind the development of the tunes. The session includes a selection of new releases where we vote "a hit/or a miss" in true Juke Box Jury style as well an increasingly competitive quiz!
Members often have the group enthralled sharing their personal knowledge, memories and stories of records and concerts they have attended. We cover a wide range of interest across most musical genres and the collective expertise is extensive! This can include pop/rock/jazz/blues/classical influences etc and a lot of researched information into the artists, their lives and their messages.
We always have a break for tea and it has been said that we provide the best biscuits!
