One night only. Full band. Full hearts. Absolutely everything.

New Music Industry pioneers Hope & Social return to The Crescent for one of only two full-band headline shows in 2025. That’s right: just two. And this is your only chance to catch the full 8-piece lineup in York.

No support. No filler. Just an all-killer, brass-blasting, harmony soaring, audience-singing, musically blistering blue-jacketed blowout.

For the ever innovative Hope & Social, a show is much more than just a gig; it’s a party, a coming-together, a reunion of friends. Hope & Social turn every show into a celebration. It’s like your favourite bar band just headlined a festival – with you in the front row, singing every word.

Think Springsteen meets soul revue. Think kicking horn section, soaring five-part harmonies and a big-hearted mix of indie, soul, folk and art pop, and some of the finest songs you’ll ever sing at the top of your lungs.

‘Extraordinary songs, virtuoso performances, beautiful moments and music hall bonhomie!’
Tom Robinson, BBC 6Music

‘Brilliant, uplifting and inclusive’
Michael Eavis, Glastonbury Festival
