About this event

An evening with Seán Gray at Cafe No9 is on Tuesday 16 February 2027 at Cafe No9, Sheffield, with doors at 19:00. Tickets start at £16.50, including the booking fee.

Seán Gray Digs into the Politics and Poetry of Ayrshire Mining Communities with his debut album Fixed Assets. A nominee for Scots Singer of the Year at the 2024 Scots Trad Music Awards, the Glasgow-based Ayrshire native is already firmly established in the international folk community, as a session player, singer, guitarist, performer, and the recipient of a prestigious Celtic Connections New Voices composing commission. Fixed Assets is deeply musical, lyrically compelling, beautifully considered and arranged, with the powerful poignancy of celebrated Ayrshire poet Rab Wilson’s words and Gray’s responsive composition and refined musical handling distilled into an evocative and respectful exploration of living history. ********************************************************************************** Please note this ticket price DOES include a BYOB fee should you wish to bring alcohol to the venue.

An evening with Holly Carter at Cafe No9

Cafe No9 · Sheffield

'Holly Carter is an award-winning songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Bristol, UK. Two-time recipient of ‘Instrumentalist of the Year’ at the Americana UK awards (2023 & 2024) she is widely recognised as an exceptional fingerstyle guitarist and one of the UK’s only professional female pedal steel players. Drawing deeply from the well of the folk tradition, she harnesses an approach to song as a powerful tool for education and the preservation of legacy. Along with a showstopping approach to guitar that follows hot on the heels of the likes of Chet Atkins and John Fahey, her music weaves joyously catchy melodies with thought-provoking lyrics that pay homage to a diverse collection of musical and personal heroes. This show will be part of a run to mark five years since the release of Holly's debut EP 'All of You...and Me', which will be re-recorded and re-released to mark the occasion. It will also be a chance to sample some 'never heard before' songs that will feature on her second full length album (due for release in 2027) before they've even made it into the studio; a way to celebrate both old and new. Holly will be joined by Joe Wilkins on guitar for this intimate sh...

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.
