SUMMARY:The Fire Doors (Tribute to The Doors)
DESCRIPTION:The Fire Doors faithfully bring to life the music of Jim Morrison\, Robby Krieger\, Ray Manzarek and John Densmore; a celebration of The Doors’ six classic albums\, from the brooding psychedelia of the self-titled debut to the bluesy howl of L.A. Woman. The Fire Doors embrace every aspect of this uniquely fascinating band – poetry\, mysticism\, flamenco and jazz all wrapped up as hard-hitting rock\, but with the pop smarts that led to chart-topping singles such as Light My Fire\, Hello\, I Love You and Touch Me. \nThe Fire Doors sees four mainstays of the North East’s music scene (Peter Brewis\, David Brewis and Andrew Moore of Field Music and David Hyde from The Futureheads) coming together to share their first musical love. Their mission now is to help keep the music of The Doors alive. \nThe band are a genuine force and pull the Doors’ hits off with clout and conviction.

SUMMARY:High Fade | Funk/Rock Trio
DESCRIPTION:Funk/Rock trio High Fade –consisting of founder Harry Valentino (Guitar\, Vocals)\, Oliver Sentence (Bass\, Mustache) and drummer Heath Campbell (Drums) has grown from Scotland’s most excited busking band into a household name across the world after bursting onto the scene with viral sensations such as “Burnt Toast & Coffee”\, “Gossip”\, “Burnin’”\, and an audacious cover of Herbie Hancock’s “Chameleon”. Sold out tours across the UK\, USA\, and Europe have seen the band get well over 1\,500 shows under their belt\, allowing High Fade to fast become one of the most ferocious touring bands on the planet. \nDelivering shows that are packed with raw energy and jaw-dropping musicianship\, they refuse to accept the limits of what a three-piece band can do.With sold out tours across the UK\, USA\, and Europe; and impactful slots at dozens of festivals like Boomtown (UK)\, Suwannee Hulaween (USA) and Glastonbury –where they performed three times in one day in 2024 –High Fade have come a long way from that street corner in Edinburgh. Drawing inspiration from funk\, rock\, disco\, jazz\, metal\, punk\, soul\, and beyond\, High Fade has developed a sound that explodes out of a rip-roaring melting point of musical influences and tears at the fabric of space time by managing to feel simultaneously fresh and retro. \nFirecly independent\, the band releases music via their own label RPN Records (“Rippin’ Records”)\, including their debut album\, Life’s Too Fast (2024)\, which charted in the UK\, Ireland\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, USA\, and Australia. Not bad for an independent DIY band operating entirely outside of the Major Label system. High Fade’s sophomore LP\, Twice As Nice\, due for release on RPN Records May 2026\, was recorded at two of the world’s most renowned studios\, East Iris Studios in Nashville and RAK Studios in London. The hotly anticipated new album arrives just in time for the band’s massive 50-date Twice As Nicetour that will bring the band to all corners of the USA and Canada this Spring and Summer. \nPlus support TBC  \nHighFademusic.live\nListen On Spotify \n\n\nTickets £22.00\nDoors From: 7:30PM\nShow Starts: 8:00PM (Approximately)\nStrictly 16+\n(Under 18’s must be accompanied by an adult\, you may be denied entry if not)\nStanding Event\nBefore attending please read our Covid-19 Disclaimer and check out our Venue Info Page\n\n\nHow To Buy Your Ticket\n\nBuy Online\, using the box below\nVisit The Forum Reception \nCall us on: 01325 363135\nPlease note our reception and phone line are not always manned especially at busy events\, please see our Opening Hours & Venue Info for more info.\n\nA non-refundable 50p booking fee is added to each ticket when buying online.On the door ticket sales are subject to availability and not guaranteed.

SUMMARY:The Hanging Stars w/ Sunstack Jones
DESCRIPTION:London’s The Hanging Stars return with their sixth album\, Just A Day – a dazzling collection of four-part harmonies\, shimmering twelve-string guitars and chiming songs\, touching on themes of longing\, new beginnings and the fragility of the everyday. Recorded at Edwyn Collin’s legendary Clashnarrow Studios in the Scottish Highlands\, the album marks a bold new chapter for the band\, produced with the invaluable guidance of Teenage Fanclub’s Gerard Love.  \nJust A Day is The Hanging Stars’ third album to be recorded at Clashnarrow Studios\, Helmsdale located in the most idyllic setting imaginable\, thirty minutes south of John O’Groats and overlooking the Moray Firth. The studio\, owned and run by Edwyn Collins and Grace Maxwell\, is a place the band describe with reverence: “a sort of mixture between Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory and the BBC’s Repair Shop”.  \nTheir sound evokes classic sounds from the past with an ear towards the future\, from The Byrds via Big Star\, to The Feelies\, Spiritualized\, Teenage Fanclub and Tom Petty. Or think Lou Reed and the Velvets jamming with Gorkys Zygotic Mynci. The result is an album that feels simultaneously classic and vibrant\, their influences worn lightly giving the songs room to breathe. \nSunstack Jones:Liverpool-based collective Sunstack Jones are something of a pre-emptive strike on the inevitably dull British summer\, bringing forth songs that stand out like slants of light in a dusty old room. Their aim is to make immersive music\, transporting you to a lethargic euphoria with billowing soundscapes to soothe the soul. \nThe band’s soul-psyche dream-pop sound caught the attention of Nick McCabe\, the lead guitarist of The Verve. He’s mastered their third album\, and brought a 3D quality\, sprinkling it with some extra magic. Delicious shuffling sun-drenched folk\, framed in rich\, warm and Laurel Canyon harmonies\, and layers of slide guitar floating through its picture perfect pastoral scene. \n\n\nTickets £10.oo\nDoors From: 7.00PM\nShow Starts: 7:45PM (Approximately)\n16+ (Under 18’s must be accompanied by an adult)\nStanding Event\nBefore attending please read our Covid-19 Disclaimer and check out our Venue Info Page\n\n\nHow To Buy Your Ticket\n\nBuy Online\, using the box below\nVisit The Forum Reception \nCall us on: 01325 363135\nPlease note our reception and phone line are not always manned especially at busy events\, please see our Opening Hours & Venue Info for more info.\n\nA non-refundable 50p booking fee is added to each ticket when buying online.On the door ticket sales are subject to availability and not guaranteed.

SUMMARY:The Bar Steward Sons of Val Doonican
DESCRIPTION:Founded in Barnsley Rock City in 2006 by their outspoken and energetic ringleader\, Scott Doonican\, The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican are on a mission! Far from being your typical folk ensemble\, this cult-like collective of like-minded knit-wear enthusiasts are determined to follow in their spiritual father’s immortal footsteps and keep his legacy alive. Scott and his brothers-from-other-mothers\, Alan and Dave\, have quite the talent for Bar-Stewardizing other famous people’s songs with new satirical comedy lyrics\, on folk instruments\, and to complete their outrageously understated image\, the Doonicans have become instantly recognisable for their immaculate hair and their stylish choice of sexy knitwear\, and instantly memorable for their lairy\, no-holds-barred\, anarchic live shows. \nA group that is both perpetually on the move\, ever-evolving and joyously independent\, they have played close to 1300 side-splitting shows to date\, and have brought smiles and belly-laughs to audiences across the UK; from Barnsley to Barnstaple\, from Glastonbury to Glasgow. They continue to wow audiences with a fine selection of their greatest hits\, including the likes of “Jump Ararnd”\, “The Lady In Greggs”\, “How Deep Is Your Glove?”\, “Paint ’em Back”\, “Goat Yoga”\, and “If I Could Punch A Face… It’d Be Justin Bieber’s”. \nThey have written and recorded eleven studio albums\, independently released over 40 live recordings\, successfully crowd-funded nine separate independent vinyl releases\, played on top of mountains\, wowed-festival goers across the length and breadth of the UK\, had six different beers brewed and named in their honour by four different breweries (one of which\, ‘Doonicans’ is an award winning part of the brewery’s core range of ales)\, they have sold-out six consecutive shows on a Mississippi paddle-steamer on the Norfolk Broads in less than 20 seconds\, hosted their own sell-out music and comedy festivals\, written & performed in their own musical\, are featured in the Experience Barnsley Museum Music Archives\, hold the bar-takings record for at least ten theatres\, have been the recipients of six different individual awards as voted for by the public in the Barnsley Music Awards\, played the Avalon Stage at Glastonbury Festival\, and to 20\,000 people at Fairport’s Cropredy Convention (twice!)\, and even scaled the dizzy heights of a #1 and a #2 single and a #2 album on the iTunes Comedy Charts (plus a National chart position in the Top 100)!  That’s not too shabby for a daft little unsigned comedy folk band from Barnsley\, who manage themselves\, eh? \nThe Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican can’t wait to bring their shindig to Darlington\, and they promise that they WILL rock you… but gently!\n“The greatest thing to come out of Barnsley\, since the A61 to Sheffield”-Jarvis Cocker\, Pulp\n“Always enjoy the boys from The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican. When the North goes independent I am suggesting ‘ Too Good To Be Jus’ is our national anthem. Great fun” -Jason Manford\, comedian\n“The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican are very\, very funny… parodists extraordinaire. One of the hardest working and best live acts on the planet. Bringing light to dark corners and joy to babes and toothless mumblers alike. Lovely stuff.”-Mike Harding\, comedian\, folk-musician\, author & broadcaster\n\n“An act that you will wanna go and see over and over again. Absolutely hilarious”– Dave Pegg\, Fairport Convention\n” The 8th wonder of the world is actually in Yorkshire… a wonderful Yorkshire genius collective known as The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican. To see them is to know true magnificence”– Kate Rusby\, Multi-Award Winning Folk-Musician\n\n\nTickets £22.50 plus booking fee (Please note\, tickets are only available via artist site\, click here for tickets ) \nDoors From: 7.00PM\n Show Starts 7:3oPM (Approximately)\n16+ (Under 18’s must be accompanied by an adult)\nSeated event \nBefore attending please read our Covid-19 Disclaimer and check out our Venue Info Page\n\n\nTo purchase tickets click here
