ROY HARPER - 5TH JUNE
In a singular career that spans over four decades, former MOJO Honours List award winner Roy Harper stands as a true hero of British music. From his psychedelic folk beginnings to such phantasmagoric long-playing masterpieces as Stormcock, Lifemask and HQ, this acoustic warrior remains a defiant, idiosyncratic live force, laudedby Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin, and an inspiration to such modern artists as Bill Callahan, The Black Crowes, Jim O’Rourke and Joanna Newsom. This rare and intimate night out with Roy Harper is not to be missed

RICHARD HAWLEY - 7TH JUNE
Possessing the bereft otherworldliness of Crying-era Roy Orbison, but with the mordant wit of Coleridge’s Ancient Mariner playing early doors in a Sheffield working men’s club, previous MOJO Honours List nominee Richard Hawley is a very special live proposition. For the past ten years his intimate, lushly orchestrated songs of love and loss have offered glimpses of a dreamlike Northern landscape as tender, romantic and melancholy as any of the great American balladeers. On a live stage, these timeless, ghostly love songs are cut with a dry Yorkshire wit and Hawley’s uniquely intimate delivery.

JOHN GRANT - 8TH JUNE
Anyone who witnessed Grant’s previous band, The Czars, on the live stage will attest to their extraordinary, hypnotic power; beguiling chamber-pop sadness shot through with Grant’s extraordinary multi-octave range. Now that this incredible confessional performer has returned with a much-garlanded solo masterpiece, Queen Of Denmark produced and backed by the incredible Midlake, (and the recent recipient of a glowing five star review in MOJO), his live shows promise to be evenings of profound emotional revelation. Book now and say that you witnessed his UK debut as an artist in his own right.

MARC ALMOND - 9TH JUNE
From the pulsing electro-pop perfection of Soft Cell’s Tainted Love to the orchestral baroque beauty of 2007’s Stardom Road and stunning new album, Variété, Marc Almond has travelled the soaring heights and plumbed the grim depths of a remarkable career path. Described by MOJO as “the post-punk Noel Coward of neon-lit electro sleaze”, Almond is an English one-off, a bruised and battered chansonnier. After a horrific motorcycle accident in 2004, many thought he would never sing again but those who’ve witnessed his return attest to emotionally transformative evenings of tears, joy and triumph.
