About this event

Martin McAloon is on Sunday 22 November 2026 at The Crescent Community Venue, York, with doors at 18:30. Tickets start at £27, including the booking fee.

Martin McAloon of Prefab Sprout 'Steve McQueen - Slight Return' Sunday 22nd November, 6.30pm Tickets are £24.50 (+ b/f) in advance and available from See Tickets. *This is a standing show* Following the overwhelming response to last year's celebrated Two Wheels Good tour, Martin McAloon is hitting the road again this Autumn — this time bringing Prefab Sprout's landmark album Steve McQueen to towns, cities and venues that the tour didn't reach first time around. One of the most beloved British records of the 1980s, Steve McQueen will be performed in full — and that's just the beginning. As with last year's shows, Martin will also be drawing from the wider Prefab Sprout catalogue, bringing to life as many of his brother Paddy's songs as the evening will hold. Last year's repertoire stretched to over thirty songs beyond the album itself. Steve McQueen – Slight Return is a joyful acknowledgement of the demand that never quite went away. "Following the national and international success of the Two Wheels Good tour," says Martin, "it seemed right to acknowledge just how many people were asking for more — in places we hadn't yet reached. I'm buoyed by the reception these songs re...

Deirdre O'Kane: All The Rage

The Crescent Community Venue · York

The Crescent Comedy Deirdre O'Kane: All The Rage Thursday 25th March Doors 7pm, Show 7.30pm *This is a seated show with all seating unreserved* Deirdre O’Kane grabs the zeitgeist once again with a brand new show in a world that feels decidedly off kilter. She contrasts everyday domestic failures with bigger moments of historical injustice, while taking aim at the double tragedies of heartbreak and getting Christmas all wrong. Nothing is sacred and no one is safe from O’Kane’s mischievous eye as she turns irritation, absurdity and outrage into brilliantly observed and hilarious stand-up. "Unique star quality." The Guardian “This positive, slick, sparkling show is a tonic.” Irish Independent "Applause follows her all the way down the street." The Scotsman "Won the audience over from the moment she opened her mouth" Metro "It's a pleasure and a privilege to witness O'Kane" The Reviews Hub

THE GIFT and THE ROUND WINDOW

The Camden Club · London

THE GIFT are regarded by some as ‘the best kept secret’ in progressive and art rock. Back in the early noughties their first album ‘Awake & Dreaming’ impressed those in the know with its heady mixture of ‘70s style and contemporary soundscapes. Then there was silence...until the band reformed and released 2014’s “Land of Shadows”, an ambitious song suite packed with strong melodies and multi-layered instrumental workouts. In 2016 The Gift released their 3rd album, ‘Why The Sea Is Salt’, which Prog magazine described as a ‘masterpiece’. It fused symphonic, long form suites with tasteful shorter songs, and featured luminaries Steve Hackett and Anthony Phillips as guest musicians. In 2019 The Gift released their 4th album ‘Antenna’, which was even harder hitting than before whilst still retaining their signature sound. Then the pandemic brought silence, as well as lineup changes. But it didn’t stop the songs. For the last few years The Gift has been busy creating and recording their 5th album ‘Seven Seasons’. Inspired by Shakespeare’s ode to our mortal experience, it explores the stages of life from birth until the end of days. Like the human condit...

Healthy Junkies

Dublin Castle · London

Healthy Junkies - they’ve been around a few years now but these thermonuclear powered grunge punk alterno dynamos just go from strength to strength. Always a totally committed performance that leaves your ears throbbing, your head spinning and your mind fully saturated with punk rock joy. Excellent band. Neovenator - the best band named after a dinosaur since Bolan boogied, these guys seem to be a semblance of The Who in conflagration with The Stranglers, playing Blur like songs in the style of The Subhumans. Ok nothing like that. Very good tho. Gripper Lee - post punk and Goff flavours with a powerhouse delivery. Named of course after the blind one from Peters and Lee who was also the only sightless wrestler to kick Big Daddy’s ass on World of Sport back in the day. Tony Buggerbear supplied the hot nuggets in between sets.
