Welcome to Furness Tradition, we are an organisation promoting folk music and related arts and crafts in South Cumbria. Part of our mission is to keep local music and traditions alive but we also play and promote a wide range of music across different traditions. You can usually find us at The Hope and Anchor pub in Ulverston on Tuesday nights from 8:30 pm where we gather for our weekly session. Why not come along and enjoy the music.
Upcoming Events
Ghost of a Sailor – Pete Morton – 18th October 2025

On Saturday 18th October, acclaimed singer-songwriter Pete Morton will perform his moving and uplifting show Ghost of a Sailor at the Coronation Hall.
This is more than just a concert — it’s a fundraiser for Every Life Matters, the Cumbrian charity working to prevent suicide, reduce stigma, and support families and communities affected by loss. As part of their work, the charity visits schools, colleges, and local businesses across Cumbria, helping people recognise the signs when someone may be struggling and encouraging open, lifesaving conversations.
All proceeds will go to Every Life Matters, as the hall costs have been covered privately in memory of a loved one.
Tickets are on sale now from the link below where you can also watch a video preview of Pete performing.
