Apart from the festival we've got some great gigs lined up this year. We're stepping up our Lunar Society at the Hare and Hounds with some cracking headliners from around the country,in February we have Dan Walsh, in March Starless and Bible Black and in April King Creosote.
In May we'll be at the English Originals weekend at the Town Hall with an afternoon of up and coming West Midlands artists in the Symphony Hall foyer. And in June we have a day of folk and dance at the MAC with Cut a Shine and the Demon Barber Roadshow.

latest news
King Creosote - 10th April 2010
We are very proud to be bringing King Creosote's solo tour to Birmingham.
The cult Scottish singer-songwriter and founder of Fence Records, Kenny Anderson AKA King Creosote will be performing with just his guitar and accordion for company. Consistently one of the best songwriters working in Britain today, he stubbornly remains both a shining light of Scotland’s music scene and probably its best kept secret.
Advance tickets are £8.50+bf. Click on the 'Buy Tickets Here' leaf to purchase.
Tickets will be £12 on the door.
Starless And Bible Black - 5th March 2010
We've got a night of psychedelia with Manchester's Starless And Bible Black, plus support from The Gardenelles and Beneath the Oak.
Since forming in 2005 Starless and Bible Black have played shows with Vetiver, The Earlies, and Espers. 2009 saw the release of "Shape Of The Shape" - an album which brings together the sounds of Topanga Canyon country rock, Manchester guitar jangle and outer-space psychedelic drones. This is coupled with the pure and husky voice of their chanteuse, Helene Gautier.
Tickets are £5 and only available on the door.
