Katie O’Brien’s Sheffield
Read more: Katie O’Brien’s SheffieldWe found ourselves back at Katie O’Brien’s in Sheffield in March for another 90 minutes of 90s and 00s guitar hits. The “green room” is becoming more habitable. The tool boxes and plasterboard have gone and there are some lights, which is nice. We’d hoped to chuck in a few new tunes to the set…

Live Music for a 21st Birthday
Read more: Live Music for a 21st BirthdayWe were invited to provide live music for a 21st birthday party, at Halifax Hall in Sheffield. Connoisseurs of this blog (a gruesome oxymoron), will know that we’ve not played Halifax Hall since the 16th of June 2016.

A Wedding at Hideaway
Read more: A Wedding at HideawayPhoto by Beck Payne Photography I was completely unaware of Hideaway tucked away on Eyre Lane in the backstreets of Sheffield city centre.

Hooten Lodge 90s Festival

Tag: Live Music
Nothing transforms a party quite like live music. A band doesn’t just play songs – they create an atmosphere, build energy, and connect with the crowd in a way that playlists and DJs can’t match. Live music adds excitement, keeps guests engaged, and turns a gathering into a memorable experience. Whether it’s getting people up on the dance floor, setting the perfect mood, or giving your celebration that “wow” factor, a live band makes your party feel personal and unforgettable.
