London-born Vikki Clayton has been immersed in music since childhood and later trained at the Trinity College of Music. A teenager in the folk-club scene, she fell hard for English traditional song, while keeping a love of rock and prog in the mix - an influence you can still hear in the breadth and drive of her performances today. She came to wider attention with cult folk-rockers Ragged Heroes, and her (unintentional) vocal resemblance to Sandy Denny led to invitations connected with Fotheringay and Fairport Convention circles. Vikki has released eight solo albums and appears on many other recordings, with guest collaborators including John Giblin (Simple Minds), Martin Barre (Jethro Tull) and Liam Genochey (Steeleye Span). She's also sung alongside folk greats such as Richard Thompson, Ralph McTell and John Martyn. Now a global citizen between NZ, Cyprus and the UK, Vikki continues to sing with a sweet, clear voice, her distinctive guitar style, and a set that can move from laughter to tears - and back again - fast. 
Jo Sheffield has been part of the Wellington folk scene since 2020, after moving to Upper Hutt from Levin. She’s an integral member of all-girl Eagles cover band The Eagals, and along with Phillip Hope, formed singer-songwriter duo Hope and the Hobo.
Until Phil sadly passed away in 2025, the duo played locally and further afield for several years. Jo released a solo album "Gypsy Mind" of her own songs in 2023 and has also been involved in compilations with other singer-songwriters. Her compositions are quirky and thought-provoking and combine influences from UK Folk, contemporary and alternative singer-songwriters, americana and blues. She is currently working on an AV show. Expect self accompanied arrangements and topics covering a
wide variety of Jo's own influences and life experiences.
Singer and multi-instrumentalist Jenny Kilpatrick and singer-songwriter Tony Ricketts have been playing music together off and on for decades, stealing the name Portable Panic from their company. Between them their musical interests and experience include British Trad and old pop songs and playing with Easy St and Celtic band Tattie Jock (Tony), The Madillionaires (both), The Eagals and The PJs (Jenny), among others. They'll play some old favourites of theirs and hopefully yours too.
Entry: $20/$15 for members. Cash only (no eftpos facilities).
