Original songs from Chris Carr on guitar and vocals accompanied by Simon Ball on bass, drums from Alex Ivanov, co vocal and Shruti from Rosana Coll and violin from Rupert Stone their sound is earthy passionate heartfelt original acoustic roots and has been compared Tim Buckley’s in the 60s but with a lighter instrumental feel. Chris Carr has been writing songs and performing since the mid nighties. Enjoying some local success with the Matlock and Chesterfield trio Left Hand Drive (with Simon Ball). They also took their show on mini tours of Norfolk, Cornwall and the west coast of Scotland between 1997 and the early 2000s. In 2017 Chris started ‘Leftychris’ as a purely original solo project. In 2020 he released a self titled album of songs (still available online) featuring guest musicians which then organically grew into the Leftychris Band. Over the last few years they've performed at festivals such as Stainsby, Derby Folk, Holmfirth and Folk in a Field. Last year, in order to reflect the evolution of the band and their tight, together and jammy sound (“It's no longer just about me” says Chris) they changed their name to Folde (from the olde English for mother earth). **...

An evening with David Ford at Cafe No9 (2nd night added)

Cafe No9 · Sheffield

David Ford: Songbook Highlights and stories from 25 years of songwriting David Ford’s Songbook tour is a stripped-back, intimate evening built around 25 years of songwriting. Part live set, part storytelling, he revisits the songs that have shaped his career, sharing the moments and influences behind them along the way. It’s a relaxed, engaging show—just Ford, the songs, and the stories—moving easily between raw, powerful performances and quieter, more reflective moments, with plenty of warmth and humour throughout. The tour accompanies the release of a special career-spanning retrospective double vinyl, bringing together some of the standout songs from his catalogue. Featuring a mix of updated recordings and remastered originals, it’s Ford’s own selection of his most important work, compiled in one place for the first time—and the live show offers a chance to hear those songs as they were meant to be experienced, up close and in the moment. Don't miss it. ********************************************************************************** Please note this ticket price DOES include a BYOB fee should you wish to bring alcohol to the venue.

An evening with Dana Robinson at Cafe No9

Cafe No9 · Sheffield

DANA ROBINSON - Songwriter | Americana | Old-Time Richard Dana Robinson was born in Eugene, Oregon in 1961, and raised in the Bay Area of California. His childhood and teen years were infused with the music of the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, Eric Clapton, Neil Young and the popular singer-songwriters of the 70s. Dana took up the guitar at ten years old and began writing songs emulating the sounds he was absorbing. In 1977, Dana spent his sophomore year of high school in London and was exposed to the punk scene and prog rock bands of the time, which became an undercurrent to his attitude and musical style. From 1979 to 1983 Dana hitchhiked relentlessly across the western United States, restless and looking for a place to take root. In 1984 after a summer spent busking around Europe he found a home in Northampton, Massachusetts. Dana took a job cooking at The Iron Horse, an intimate, 100-seat music club. There he witnessed performances from some of the great songwriters and musicians of the time. Artists such as Shawn Colvin, Loudon Wainwright, Bill Staines, Martin Simpson and Doc Watson provided live examples of how one person, armed with a guitar, could move an audience and make...

Aidan Thorne and Jason Ball, David Ian Roberts

The Globe at Hay · Hereford

Aidan Thorne & Jason Ball Invoke nostalgia, and rekindle a memory of a time and/or place. The pieces are engulfed in a fog of guitar ambience and measured 6 string bass textures. Deeply rooted in jazz, the style carefully glides between written and improvised elements. Some of the compositions were realised and refined from recordings of loose jam sessions. One may hear nods to influences from 70’s ECM records such as Terje Rypdall or Bill Frizell. "A fantastic deep dive into lesser-known Welsh folk tunes” Jude Rodgers, The Guardian “An unforgettable musical experience” **** Ian Mann, Jazzmann Blog “a beguiling instrumental set" - Tim Cumming, Songlines David Ian Roberts will be performing a new set of unreleased instrumental electric guitar pieces ahead of recording his new album. Owing as much to Jeff Buckley's solo guitar work as to folk influences Nick Drake or Bert Jansch, Roberts uses the simplicity of just a telecaster and a reverb pedal to intimate but dazzling effect. "A quiet masterpiece” Mark Radcliffe BBC Radio 2 "A performance of astounding artistry - guitar patterns that match even the legacies of a Nick Drake or Sufjan Stevens" RnR "Quietly Exceptional" U...
