Born in the U3a


Born in the U3A Guitar Group


Hi there. We’re a group of like minded guitar players who just love to rock and roll. 

Mostly retired (semi-retired) and keen to share our enthusiasm for all things 

rock, folk, country, blues and pop. with songs mainly from the 50’s, 60’s, & 70’s. 

We also hold an electric guitar session once a month and our song list is available to download in the link below. 

We’re available for gigs within a reasonable distance of St Helens and make no charge,

 although if you wish to make a donation these are accepted and passed on to local charities. 

If you want to book us for any event please get in touch following the links below on the St Helens U3A website
