Strada Music presents Hope & Social.
Hope & Social are more than a band. They are a band anyone can join; a band who can turn their studio into a bistro for 70 fans; a band who involve people in what they do.
From teaching brass instruments in their Streetband Named Desire project, to collaborating with other artists in their Crypt Covers Album. 10 years has seen - in addition to the many projects - a wealth of recorded music. Five studio albums, two E.P's, an acoustic album (Crypt Covers), a Christmas song, music a for a theatre piece, and a collaboration with New York Brass Band.
Come and see the Boys in Blue this September when they celebrate a 10 Year retrospective tour, revisiting a number of songs from their extensive back catalogue.
Hope & Social are renowned for making every gig an event; a band who throw themselves wholeheartedly into every performance and perfectly bridge the gap between the stage and the audience.
Anthemic songs, infectious melodies and a formidable live experience.
Prices: £16, conc £14, members £12.80.

Martin Carthy & John Kirkpatrick
Sunday 28 Oct 2018 7:00pm
Alan Bearman Music presents Martin Carthy & John Kirkpatrick.
National treasures Martin Carthy & John Kirkpatrick embark on a rare UK duo tour.
These two leading interpreters of English folk traditions are long-time collaborators in a variety of seminal musical projects. Their enduring enjoyment of playing with each other shines through in their performances – warm, natural and charismatic. Pure English folk pedigree!
Martin Carthy has been one of folk music's greatest innovators, one of its best loved, most enthusiastic and, at times, most quietly controversial of figures. His skill, stage presence and natural charm have won him many admirers, not only from within the folk scene, but also far beyond it.
John is one of the most prolific figures on the English folk scene, performing solo, in duos, acoustic groups and electric bands, and has established an enviable reputation as an instrumental virtuoso as well as a leading interpreter of English folk music.
Prices: £15, conc £13 and members £12
