I cant recommend Paddy Orange highly enough, the lad's got great rhymes, and the tunes are interesting and imaginitive, and sophie's voice is top notch too. All in all, well worth a trip out.

also *ahem* coming soon, the Koenig is finally going to hit the live stage, we've procrastinated long enough, more details coming soon!

Come and see Redroom at Plug, I think it's in 2 weeks time. It will be one of their first gigs in Sheffield as a new 3 piece and they are very good.
It's only a fiver...

Seen a few of the above, to add another....
I've seen 65 Days Of Static quite a few times.
Always good.

boy on a dolphin

superb sheffield band, usually sell out at city hall when they play at christmas.

One or two.
I really liked Alvarez kings:)

Driftrun and Milburn are also very good.:)

Doh. Yeah driftrun (last band i saw!) and seen acoustic angels as well.

Remembered Durban and The Chartists as well.

I love the Magdelaine Cays, but Im biased since I know the bassist and lead singer.

No mention of the legendary Frank White? OK then ... Frank White... many times.

Even went to see him in London playing second fiddle (:huh:) to Al Stewart. Top bloke in all ways :thumbsup:

Posisbly others as well if i knew they were frm sheffield!




If you want listings and up to date news of what bands are playing from yorkshire, 'The Sandman, The Fly, and Exposure' are all excellent sources and give great reviews on local music acts.:)

Best thing to do is join Sheffield gig goers on myspace and facebook. Links to all the pages you could possibly shake a stick at are all on there and Jen keeps the local gigs up to date.

I go to loads of gigs around Sheff and my fave local bands would have to be :

Alveraz Kings
The Dodgems
The Headliners
Avangaad

All really good bands. I know Dodgems have already been signed. I reckon the other 3 should be too! x

Alvarez Kings
Bromheads Jacket
Little Man Tate
Reverend and the Makers
Milburn
Arctic Monkeys, probably some others as support acts.

There's a very good (Rotherham based) band called Henrys Carpet Skip I've seen a few times at the Boardwalk.

Their lead guitarist is a Sheffield Forummer > MrBenn

and their myspace is >> http://www.myspace.com/carpetskip :D

You can hear live bands on Sheffield Live every Saturday at 21.00 on The Local Talent show.
The Headliners played last week some great bands lined up for coming weeks.
Driftrun and many more have all played on Local Talent Show, I produce it The presenter is Ryan Wright, check him out at www.myspace.com/thelocaltalentshow

After 13 years Sheffield's Blind Mole Rat are reforming for a special one off charity gig next Saturday 15th March.

Listened to some of their stuff on my space yesterday. I've not heard of them before but i was really impressed. Is Boothy the infamous one from the Little man tate song?

Anyone seen Jackson Caged?

www.myspace.com/jacksoncaged

I would recommend them, but that'd be biased since the bassist and guitarist are good mates of mine. :P

He's a police officer now, so i doubt it.

uneedsubtitles (www.myspace.com/uneedsubtitles) ;)
