Hang Out UK

About the Weekend

Starting on Friday 19th September 2008, from midday, Hang Out UK is a weekend event for people passionate about the Hang from across the world to come and join together to learn new techniques and play Hang.

During the weekend various performances and workshops will be available in the Barn, or down by the river, as well as a chance for people to jam or perform music of their own during the open mic sessions.

On Saturday night we’re planning on having a big bonfire where we’d like to encourage people to jam and enjoy the open space. (weather depending of course)

Finishing on Sunday 21st September people are welcome to camp over on the Sunday night as the weekend isn't quite over yet; another night of jamming, open mics and musical fun is in order to end the weekend's Hang Out.

Workshops

Michael Colley – Hang playing techniques and polyrhythm’s
Dean Humphries – Traditional fire lighting with flint and steel
Gavin Blench – Didjeridu, 1-2-1, group workshops throughout the weekend

About the Venue

Mellow farm is an established family run farm dating back to 1566. Set in the beautiful Surrey countryside on the outskirts of the historic market town of Farnham, Mellow farm nestles in a river valley with woodlands and rural life all around.

Hang Out UK will be centred in a barn on the farm called "The Chicken Shed", with a purpose built stage for open mic as well as plenty of space for a jamming circle and even a fully functional kitchen area.

Situated at the end of the camping field right next to the River Wey is a large fire pit for some after dark jamming sessions around the open fire.

Facilities

Mellow farm is a functional campsite with camping field, toilet & shower facilities, BBQ area with picnic table & a fully working kitchen.

The Chicken Shed also boasts facilities for up to 10 people to sleep, so if you cannot bring a tent then do not despair as we can provide you with a mattress; just bring some bedding. Spaces are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment or you'll end up on a hard floor! Please also bear in mind that jamming in the barn can go on until quite late.
