Thanks to the amazing work of Eveline van Breemen and the lovely people of North Lincolnshire Museum the opening night of the “Mo Ogg, Bard of Coleby” exhibition took place at the Scunthorpe Museum last week.

Lots of fascinating history of the Scunthorpe Folk Song Club, Stubble Jumpers ceilidh band and Mo’s work as a song collector, musician and author of the Coleby Plough Jag.

Lovely to hear John Baker sing ‘Sludger Tom’ and sell a few more CDs of Mo’s songs produced by Robert Cuthbertson & Darryl Ebbatson of Smallcogmusic.

Please share and tell the folk world about our local hero and how he put North Lincs on the map. #TraditionalMusic#folkmusic#heritage#folklore#localhistorymatters#folksong#northlincs#folkart
