All Welcome
£5 [+10% booking fee]
7.30pm Doors – tickets available on the door
With live music from The Harmony Jar, Creedy and the Colour, The Blameless Hussies & The Men They Couldn’t Stand, plus DJ Ethel Edna Smith
Dark Americana from three bright and sunny musicians. The Harmony Jar play a mixture of self-penned songs and unusual covers, and their close harmonies and moody tunes make for an enjoyable (if not very cheerful) listening experience.
Creedy and the Colour is a two-piece Hebden Bridge-based band, featuring established pysch/prog/folk singer-songwriter-guitarist, Creedy, and Paul Walsh (AKA Turtle) who also played inventive melodic bass in former incarnations of this collaboration, including The Landing Party and Ecogoose. Expect gentle funky melodies with outstanding guitar, thought-provoking lyrics and powerful vocals.
The Blameless Hussies are Jenny Goodman and Sarah Harman – they combine their distinctive voices to create witty and serious songs from a woman’s perspective – on life, love, the injustices of the world and the fight for freedom – all in glorious acapella harmony
The Men They Couldn’t Stand are two old gits with over fifty years of performance experiencebetween them and a great future – behind them. We play sets of lively tunes in a celtic style and sing quirky songs very much in our own style
