Upcoming Events
HENGE
Extra-terrestrial joymongers – HENGE – have been delighting audiences in the UK and Europe since they landed on Planet Earth nine years ago. Their scintillating live performances earned them ‘Best Live Act’ at the Independent Festival Awards and they have since cemented their reputation with three acclaimed albums, numerous tours and regular main-stage festival appearances.
Nearly Dan: The Spirit & Sound of Steely Dan
Less tribute and more homage, Nearly Dan is saviour to the growing legions of Dan fans, desperate to hear the meticulously crafted grooves and allusive lyrical style of Donald Fagen & Walter Becker. Nearly Dan’s approach is faithful, though not reverential, and relaxed but as tight as their namesakes. They bring their own unique spirit and spontaneous humour to every concert.
Bella Gaffney
Winner of the prestigious 2016 Celtic Connections Danny Kyle Award, Bella (of The Magpies) is celebrated for her folk-inspired songwriting and unique arrangements of traditional pieces.
Stick In The Wheel
Stick In The Wheel return to York this October!
Rooted in folk music and the reworking of centuries old work songs, this radical East London duo use synths, electronics & acoustic instruments to dismantle preconceptions of what folk music has to sound like. Expect an intense, genre-fluid trip.
Nashville Pussy + Polly & The Chaos
There are few bands that embody the phrase “sex, drugs and rock‘n’roll” more than Grammy-nominated American hard rock act NASHVILLE PUSSY.
Tom Robinson Band
The current Tom Robinson Band will play a 23 date tour in October/November 2024 showcasing those first two albums, in tribute to the original band members. The setlist has been chosen by fans via an online poll, and will include some album tracks from the era that have never previously been performed live. Alongside Robinson on bass, the band features Faithless drummer Andy Treacey, guitarist Adam Phillips from the Richard Ashcroft Band, keyboard virtuoso Jim Simmons and Northern soul singer Lee Forsyth Griffiths on acoustic guitar.
CUD + Cardboard Radio
Leeds art students form band, create cult indie-pop and funk sensation, tour with the Pixies and session with John Peel. Emerging from the same art/design cauldron that produced fellow Leeds legends Soft Cell, Scritti Politti, and The Mekons, they were the pre-Britpop answer to sad-eyed shoegaze; bursting with originality, humour and a we’re-from-Leeds attitude. What’s not to like?
Kris Drever
Cherished and admired in equal measure by listeners and fellow musicians, award-winning guitarist, singer, songwriter and prolific collaborator Kris Drever has been a leading light on the UK roots scene for well over a decade.
York Gig for Good: The Y Street Band & Senators
A memorable evening of music celebrating York’s community spirit whilst fundraising for The Snappy Trust and York Food Bank.
