Good morning, and welcome to your weekly what's on in Shepton Mallet.

Every Thursday we round up all the eye-catching events occurring in your area over the weekend and into the coming week.

The Bath and West Showground is the Shepton Mallet Nub News What's On sponsor. Without community-minded partners like the Bath and West Showground we would not be able to produce the locally-relevant, clickbait-free news to the people of Shepton Mallet.

Read on for not to be missed outings this week - but remember: this is just a few of the events that have caught our attention - there's loads more going on out there in your community.

Remember if you're running an event, you can add it to our listings for free using the Nub It button!

Live Music:

West Pennard Village Hall, Sun Feb 26,

Doors 6.30pm. Show 7.30pm

Janice Burns & Jon Doran are an Anglo-Scottish duo who came together after discovering a shared love of traditional music. They find their songs in archives that span the depths of our history – songs that tell vivid stories about the nature of life and our place in the world.

Janice & Jon's compelling storytelling comes alive through tight vocal harmonies and sensitive interplay between mandolin, bouzouki, and guitar. Their arrangements have a spellbinding presence and an understated energy that transports their songs from the pages of books and manuscripts into the imagination of the listener.
