Little Rock Folk Club is dedicated to preserving the link between the musical traditions of the Old and New Worlds.

Little Rock Folk Club was started June 12th 1989 by several diehard fans of U.K. and Irish music in the Little Rock area and is Little Rock's oldest 'bridge' between the Old and New World musical traditions. During the intervening years we have produced numerous concerts by some of the best and most enduring musicians in that genre. This includes strictly traditional artists and songwriters/composers working in that genre. LRFC is a 501(c)(3) organization. We welcome sponsorship, donations and input from others sharing our interests.

Beppe Gambetta



Alongside his persona as an acoustic guitarist and singer, Beppe Gambetta has brought to the fore a consistent songwriting vein, enthusiastically received by critics and audiences and for many months at the top of the U.S. independent charts. Based on the artists' right to dream of a beauty that defies the grayness of reality, the program takes us to a world of stories and dreams linked to the motherlands of infinite possible itineraries. Dreams from different eras, inspired by the fathers of music, the voices of minorities, indigenous people, and fleeing peoples, where even “Woody and Pete” looks with horror at the land of today.

“Another treasure chest, colorful and sparkling, in which art is combined with civic engagement....So let's listen and enjoy these eight tracks that take us not only on a journey around the world, but also into the heart of man” Laura Bianchi - Mescalina

“From the very first note, a horizon of relaxed virtuosity opens up to the listener.... in the style of Tony Rice's best recordings, where fantastically relaxed guitar work ennobles already great songs.... everything is blended here with sensational sensitivity, a steady, lively, silky-clear sound flatters the listener's ears with ever-increasing enthusiasm” Michael Lohr - Acoustic Guitar

"Terra Madre is an enchanting continuation of his long catalog of recordings. It is bilingual, cinematic and reflective, but also passionate and sassy." Justin Hiltner - The Bluegrass Situation

Please join us for an evening of gentle humour, beautifully constructed songs, and outstanding flat-picked instrumentals displaying a mastery of the guitar fret board and dexterity... served with a soothing and relaxing Italian accent...
