The Folk Club takes up its quarters at the castle.
For its next evening on Friday, November 29, the Cahors Folk Club is offering as headliner for its monthly evening at the Château de Labastide-Marnhac, Fred Batista, an artist known for his crazy songs and so many poetic and offbeat stories inspired by through life and a fertile imagination. His universe offers all kinds of encounters, with among others a cowboy, vegetables, herrings and whelks, a slap face… As an actor, singer, author, composer and performer, Fred Batista will make you experience a moment too offbeat as friendly and participatory. Like a good one-man band, he is accompanied by around ten instruments, from the Ukulele to the flute, including the trumpet and the melodica… In the first part, you will find “Troubadour” and the singers Colette Caminade, Odette Pradines and Babette Mellac.
