Angie & Ken Bladon started the "Come All Ye" folk club in the upstairs room at the White Hart in Headless Cross, but didn't book any guests until the Redditch Folk club closed down (see Redditch Folk Club article). It's name stayed as the "Come All Ye" until the birth of the Four Fools Folk Festival in June 1989, when it became the Four Fools Folk Club. The club was then run by Ken & Angie along with Bob & Ali Matthews. When Ken & Angie moved to Chorley in 1995 the clubs name changed to the Redditch Folk Club, and was run by several people, including Sally Whitehouse.. Bryn Colvin took over the running in Sept 2000
