The Moth &The Mic Showcase

Join us for an evening of the best in emerging talent from the Falmouth music scene hosted by John Cartwright (Smokin’ Pilchards). 

This Showcase will feature a variety of musical styles and genres with musicians drawn from the popular ‘The Moth & The Mic’ evening hosted at The Moth & The Moon, Falmouth. 

Featuring (running oder tbc):

Sonara 

Stemming from 'Senara', the Cornish word for 'Light', here are a band you can definitely say have had part of their origin inspired by the Moth and Moon.

With each individual band member having already utilized the open mic, prior to their groups inception, Sonara built their sound from the folk, etheral, and personal tones that the Moth provided them. Through their dynamic songwriting, you will get to hear a range of styles, employing the use of alternate tunings, violin, guitar, and traditional-style drumming.
