Lapwing soared across the Sheffield music scene with their exquisite harmonies and we were very lucky to have them as guests last year before they had to go separate ways.

But Captain Jack Avery is never quiet for long and he is back with Cowbird. This is quite different, expect lots of songs you will want to sing along with, old time/gospel/blues/cowboy favourites, lots of voices and instruments and a great deal of fun.

We will also have a set from Beki Dunn who has the knack of singing beautiful interpretations. Plus your resident stripped down Orchestra of Truth, Gloria Monday of course.

All income from ticket sales, raffle and collection will go to Rethink Mental Illness.

Rethink Mental Illness runs the Sheffield Crisis House, offering 24 hour residential support for people experiencing acute mental health crisis. This short term but very focused intensive support can turn around the lives of people experiencing profound difficulties and distress.

Tickets £4 in advance (£5 on the night if there are any left)

Two of the finest ornaments on the mantelpiece of Sheffield music making, Julie and Tim write great songs, Tim is a master of the guitar and cello and Julie sings exquisitely. Their album, ‘Made from a Broken Star’ was featured recently on Stuart Maconie’s Freak Zone programme on Radio 6.

It’s a very long time since they were last able to play for us, with life getting in the way, so we are really pleased that they can play for us this year.

We will also have a set from Cold Bones, a great characterful Sheffield songwriter who went down a storm on his debut at thre Grand Ol’ Bowling Club last year.

And songs from your resident Orchestra of Truth, Gloria Monday of course

It’s the first time we have had Sensible Shoes as guests but you might remember Julie Pehl who has played for us twice, we’ve been hoping to get Julie and her fellow Shoes to play for us quite a while so this will be a treat.

After the multi-instrumental fun of our bands in February and March this will be a very different kind of pleasure. Sensible shoes specialise in beautiful three part harmony singing so it will be an evening to soak up the sound,

We also have our friends Oranjabanj back again with their fresh original songs, having been such a hit at the Grand Ol’ Bowling Club a year ago. Plus your resident stripped down Orchestra of Truth, Gloria Monday of course.

Sheffield’s exuberant, exilarating and deeply lovable Folk-Rock band. They brought the house down last year, just not to be missed. Treebeard have been with us, under the genial leadership of Chris McMahon for as long as anyone can remember, with a changeing lineup, but the latest version is taking us to a new level of musical delight and silly dressing up.

And for extra pleasure we welcome back Ian Price – his singing is a deep pleasure and the songs he writes are always worth hearing.

You may have seen Maeve McRory with her sister Claire in Silvermill, an unstoppable force in Sheffield’s local music scene. Maeve is bringing that musical energy to her partnership with another fine performer, Steve Dalton and we can’t wait to see what they will come up with..

Gloria Monday

It’s December so it’s Gloria Monday at the top of the bill. It’s nearly a year since we took on a new name and a new direction, we have some new songs of our own, with an upbeat celebratory feel, new arrangements of old favourites and more saxophone!

We’ll be Drinking With the Vice Squad, Skydiving, swimming with Mermaids, committing Highway Robbery and there’s a whole new version of our award-winning song about Harriet Quimby, the glamourous and tragic aviation pioneer.

But of course it’s not just us, we’ll have some beautiful jazz-influenced songs from Kate & Johnny, their first time playing with us at the Grand ‘Ol Bowling Club, and there will engaging, provoking poetry from Rachel Bower. It will be fab
