the lunar society
A monthly gathering held at the Hare and Hounds, on the first Friday of each month. It’s a chance to see up and coming artists from around the country with top local support. You’ll find a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, candlelit tables and a late bar till 1am.
The Lunar Society is closely linked with the Moseley Folk Festival. The Lunar Stage sits right next to the main festival stage and many of the
acts that play the Lunar Stage have previously performed at our monthly event.This gives emerging artists valuable exposure and has boosted many careers over the last four years.
If you’re an artist and you would like to be considered for the Lunar Society please send a CD to our office or email a myspace link to

King Creosote
Artist's WebsiteArtist's Myspace
We are very proud to be hosting the Birmingham leg of the solo tour from Kenny Anderson AKA King Creosote. The cult Scottish singer-songwriter and founder of Fence Records 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.
Support will be provided by some very special guests.
Advance tickets are only available from our online shop. To purchase click on the 'Buy Tickets Here' leaf at the top of the page.
