Every night is opening night as these top improvisers compose brand-new comedy musicals from your title suggestions. Nominated Best Variety Show at Leicester Comedy Festival 2024 - Europe's biggest comedy festival - this show has been picking up rave reviews and selling out at venues and festivals across the UK. 

Damien Dempsey returns after 7 years with his new double album "Hold Your Joy" on 25th October 2024. 16 intricate tracks beautifully crafted. Honest, vulnerable and essential listening. Produced by long time collaborator John Reynolds, Hold Your Joy is undoubtedly the most complete body of work Dempsey has committed to tape in his entire career.

Morganway, a multi-award-winning force in the thriving UK Country & Americana scene, has etched an indelible mark with their distinctive six-part harmonies, vibrant rhythms, and irresistibly catchy tunes. Hailed as "like no other band out there right now" and drawing parallels to the iconic Fleetwood Mac (Entertainment Focus), their live performances are a formidable experience.

Time flies when you’re being Tunng. Can it really be over two decades since the band’s genre-blurring, self-styled ‘pagan folktronica’ first emerged from an east London studio courtesy of a clutch of Gilles Peterson-endorsed singles on the small but perfectly formed Static Caravan imprint? It surely can, and what’s more, January 2025 will mark the twentieth anniversary of This is Tunng...

The Brains has never been a band to follow the rules…in fact they’ve made it a point to utterly and completely destroy every single one of them with each album they release and every show they play. These hardworking road-warriors have brought their eye-popping live show to the four corners of the world; playing packed houses throughout Europe, Canada and the US alongside acts like Mad Sin, The Offspring, The Reverend Horton Heat, The Creepshow and many more.

As a founding member of Dublin experimental folk group Lankum, Ian Lynch explores submerged leylines of music and song. Forging a musical path that is all at once dark, mysterious and foreboding, but ultimately transcendental. His new solo project One Leg One Eye sees him taking a fresh approach to musical arrangement culminating in a sound that is more rooted in the raw aesthetics of second wave black metal than contemporary folk.
