Two of the hottest blues rock acts have joined forces to embark on what promises to be one of the most exciting co-headline tours in recent years. Critically acclaimed 5-piece roots/blues rockers The Commoners embark on a 15-date UK tour in April 2023 with the UK’s King of slide guitar, Troy Redfern.
Announcements
Herbal Mafia 17th Birthday w/ Serial Killaz, Breakface, Nicky Blackmarket & more!
It’s birthday time!
We’ve had a great year bringing you the best in bass heavy music, from Ed Solo, Benny Page and Parly B to Skinnyman, Breakage and SP:MC, and everyone else who represented, there’s too many to name!
We start the new year properly with the return of some absolute dons; the York debut of a rising star; and a battle of bass between two local crews – on Herbal Mafia’s recently upgraded sound system in room 2!
Bob Fox, Jez Lowe & Julie Matthews – ‘In The Footsteps Of Ewan MacColl’
Bob Fox, Jez Lowe & Julie Matthews come together ‘In The Footsteps Of Ewan MacColl’, a concert of songs and spoken word.
Revisiting the BBC Home Srvice’s Radio Ballads, hosted by Ewan MacColl along with Charles Parker and Peggy Seeger in the 50s and 60s.
Expect to be entertained and enlightened by songs of joy, love, hardship and humour.
Willie J Healey + Captain Starlet
His new record sees Willie dive headfirst into a style of music he has always loved, but that never previously found its way into his own songs. It’s a low-slung, sensual ‘70s-style jam which simultaneously calls to mind Sly and The Family Stone, Philly soul, ‘Midnite Vultures’-era Beck and a little OutKast.
Millie Manders & The ShutUp, Sally Pepper + KissKissKill
‘Unfortunately tomorrow’s show in York has been rescheduled due to illness and will now take place on Friday 7th July.
All tickets remain valid but refunds are also available from your point of purchase.’
Cross-genre punk rockers Millie Manders & The ShutUp bring the party to The Crescent for the first time.
Hellbound Glory + The Black Skies
A double bill of whiskey-drenched low-slung country and rock’n’roll from the American mid-west and the North of Yorkshire!
Emily Richardson’s ‘gig’ Book Launch!
Come and celebrate the arrival of Emily’s new book ‘gig’, a photo-journal of the beautiful York music scene over the last few years. We’re super pleased to be hosting this party at The Crescent with four ace bands who have continually supported what we do here. Cheers guys.
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.
An Evening With She Drew The Gun
The fabulous Louisa Roach is coming to perform both songs and poetry for us in February at The Crescent.
Run Logan Run + Annie Gardiner
At the forefront of Bristol’s contribution to the pulsing new UK jazz scene come Run Logan Run, an alchemical fusion of surging, polyrhythmic alt-breakbeats and screaming guttural saxophone.
