Event added by BGR Events

The  stop off at Hebden Bridge on Johnny Campbell's 60th Anniversary Pennine Way Tour.  A walking and gigging tour.


This is an afternoon concert so Johnny can get an early night!  Doors 4.00pm and Show 5.00 pm

Johnny Campbell reflects the traditions of North of England in his own songs, many of which which promote the ‘right to roam’. He resonates with the burgeoning interest in nature, legend and the countryside, without losing any of the gritty politics of his region. He also organises an annual folk festival in Viking Long Huts on the moors of Cumbria.

''The spirit of the folk clubs in their heyday runs in his veins'' Folking.com
''A Modern-Day Billy Bragg'' - Tradfolk
''Nobody else seems to be doing what Campbell is doing right now, and his passion and determination deserve recognition'' - Jon Wilks


Lucy and Hazel are a Sheffield-based queer folk duo charming audiences with self penned folk laced with humour, harmonies and heartache. With influences drawn from a lifetime steeped in traditional English and European folk music, song and dance, Lucy Huzzard and Hazel Thompson combine a love of groove, soulful raw harmonies and passionate song writing to give you hope in these strange times.

On melodeon, clarinet, guitar and two distinct and powerful voices, Lucy and Hazel’s set will take you on a journey through themes of land and climate justice, feminism, apocalypse, power and platonic love. With inspirations spanning from Joni Mitchell and Ivor Cutler, to stories of resistance to injustice, they are a powerful and entertaining folk duo on the scene.
