"A vibrant and moving homage" DOWNBEAT

Chris Wood

In a world of soundbites and distractions Chris Wood is a truth seeker. His writing is permeated with love and wry intelligence, uplifting and challenging as he celebrates the sheer one-thing-after-anotherness of life. Tom Robinson and Chris Difford are fans while Stick In The Wheel and The Unthanks look to him as an influence.

Winner of 6 BBC Folk Awards, he's played with The Royal Shakespeare Company and was a key member of The Imagined Village along with Billy Bragg and Martin Carthy. A wise and soulful craftsman, his concerts are a cliche free zone.

Leeds Music History Walks - Punk and Post-Punk in Leeds, led by Sarah Statham

Leeds had a very special part to play in the evolution of punk and post-punk in the late 1970s/early 1980s. On the Punk and Post-Punk walk you’ll visit key sites from the University to the legendary F Club. The walk brings to life the very particular circumstances of Leeds at the time – the shadow of the so-called Yorkshire Ripper, The National Front and football violence, the arts courses at the city’s universities – that contributed to the sound and politics of Leeds’ own interpretation of punk and post-punk, and explores the music’s ongoing legacy in the city.
