By popular demand, a swift return for Newcastle's greatest off-kilter
troubadour, raconteur and twisted guitar batterer. Richard Dawson's amazing performance was a highlight of this year's bitterly cold spring, veering from hilarity to majesty in the blink of an eye. Catch one of the few dates on his whistle-stop mini-tour and wonder.

Sacred Harp is an inclusive music of soaring harmonies, made by and for the people. Learn some simple tunes using an easy fa-so-la system and sing your heart out with Bristol Sacred Harp.

Listen out for Ewan MacColl, Peggy Seeger and Charles Parker's magisterial Radio Ballads in the bar.
