Puzzle Hall Inn
Buck Curran-September 13th 4pm
His music draws on inspiration from the deep well of folk and rock of the 1960s (Robbie Basho, Bert Jansch, Tim Buckley, etc.) but with a sparse modern sensibility. His award winning music has echoes of Mark Lanegan and Duke Garwood in its haunted post-grunge take on traditional American music but with a sombre beauty all his own
Frank Hurricane/Slo Blome-September 15th 8pm
Frank Hurricane: Spiritual blues and folk musician/storyteller located in North Carolina
Slo Blome: Folk with fearless invention and a darkly bewitching power all of their own. Rooted in tradition yet unbound by it, their sound soars on the strength of powerful vocals telling exciting fables supported by a restless folk spirit
Owter Zeds-September 19th 9pm
Reggae and Ska at its finest! The songs are timeless
Irked/Peroxide Live-September 20th 4pm
Irked: Catchy-ragers from Newcastle on Wrong Speed Records ‘bruising garage punk with vocals howled by a twirling dervish of pure fury’ - The Quietus

Stuart McCallum-September 24th 8:15pm
Genre-defying guitarist, composer, and producer whose music weaves together jazz, folk, ambient, and electronic textures
The All Night Chemist/Ste Morris & Slow Glass-September 26th 8pm
The All Night Chemist: Taking inspiration from the likes of Neil Young, Flaming Lips and They Might Be Giants, expect a 70s inspired alt-country romp
Ste Morris: Guitarist/frontman of much loved Manchester band Jesus Knievel whose new project SLOW GLASS has allowed him to take his music in a more melodic and pop-orientated direction (without scrimping on his impressive guitar pyrotechnics). It's the sound of classic 70's pop put through a scuzzy alt-rock mangler
Leeds Project Big Band-September 27th 4pm
Wonderfully diverse mix of classic big band swing, funk and soul
Dateline/Small Gauge-September 30th 8pm
Dateline: Melodic indie rock has a self-deprecating take on the frustrations of life exploring themes of adult responsibility with humour and heart
Small Gauge: In this winning formation they craft a sound combining winsome early 80’s indie jangle, austere post punk and the more melodic end of Goth
Ruckus Rocks 2-October 3rd 6pm
Get your stomping boots on and be ready to pogo the night away at Ruckus Rocks a festival of the finest indie punk
Echoeviolet/Glisten Trick-October 10th 9pm
Echoeviolet: Dynamic rock trio from Yorkshire, making waves with their bold, distinctive sound. Drawing comparisons to Muse, Queens of the Stone Age, and Idles
Glisten Trick: Collaborators from cult drone, neo-psych and garage acts from the US and UK ( Flamingods, The Warlocks, Brian Jonestowm Massacre). In this strange congregation pulled together from fellow neo-psych travelers, and garage-damaged misfits Ghost creates a dark sound which is at once richly psychedelic and winningly accessible
Alistair Gordon/Vincent Whyte-October 11th 4pm
Alistair Gordon: Years of busking and a creative approach to guitar and harmonica shaped by adventurous listening habits. The clearest influences include John Martyn, Charlie Parr and The Felice Brothers. Lyrical content often tackles unconventional subject matter and reflects a life split between South Yorkshire and North Saxony
Vincent Whyte: Combines drollness, sincerity, tragedy, comedy and musical prowess
