Carradine’s Cockney Sing-a-Long

Returning for a tenth year of rousing feel-good performances, your piano-playing host, Tom Carradine is back with another uproarious evening of song. 

Let Tom lead you in a traditional East End sing-a-long around the old Joanna, including ditties from the Music Hall era, WWI and II, the West End stage and popular songs from across the decades. It’s a good old-fashioned knees-up! 

Since launching at Wilton’s back in 2014, Carradine’s Cockney Sing-a-long has gone from strength to strength, performing every Thursday at Mr Fogg’s Tavern in Covent Garden and for vintage festivals, corporate events and private parties across the country.   

The sing-a-long has also appeared on television (including The Apprentice and Sunday Brunch), two transatlantic crossings on the Queen Mary 2 and in Trafalgar Square for the Mayor of London’s 2024 St George’s Day celebrations. 

In January 2022, Tom was recognised by the British Music Hall Society with an award for “keeping the spirit of music hall alive”.
