A Crookes Folk Club presentation at The Princess Royal, 43 Slinn Street, Sheffield, S10 1NW.
*TICKETING & DOOR POLICY*
Whilst we occasionally run ticketed Friday Night Specials, entry for our regular weekly Thursday club nights is on a first-come-first-served basis and unticketed and we do not take advanced seat bookings.
Entry for regular club nights is free, we pay our guests by way of a *CASH* collection. Whilst we understand that some simply haven't the means to make a contribution and absolutely DO NOT wish to exclude them, we expect those who can to make as generous a donation as they are able in recognition of our guest's work.
*PLEASE CHECK FOR UPDATES BEFORE SETTING OUT*
Life is full of unexpected ups and downs, illness, weather and other unexpected things can spoil the best made plans. We may sometimes have to change our guest at short notice, or even cancel an evening altogether. To avoid disappointment please re-visit the relevant night's event for updates *BEFORE* setting out.
*RAINTOWN SEERS
Originally formed in mid-2012, focused on predominantly English folk and original material, Raintown Seers have gone through a process of evolution and development both in terms of musical style and personnel. With their outstanding singer (Florida native - Sara Beth), and RNCM-trained Chris on violin, keys and additional backing vocals, Raintown Seers, is now a 4-piece roots/Americana band who together produce a unique blend of acoustic music with roots in the folk traditions of both sides of the Atlantic. Each with their own rich and lengthy musical experience, these musicians bring diverse influences and instrumental skills, combining guitar, violin, upright bass and 2 and 3-part harmonies into oustanding original songs and contemporary cover versions.
The evolved line-up released their first (and the band's third) album, "Love Loss Home", in January of 2024
Raintown Seers consists of:
Sara Beth - Lead Vocals
Neil Fisher - Vocals, Guitar, Mandolin, Banjo
Dan Hall - Bass
Chris Demetriou - Fiddle, Keys, Vocals
In 2023, the band played the Manchester/Glossop Folk Train event and have appeared at numerous small festivals and venues in and around the High Peak, Sheffield and South Manchester. They were finalists in this year’s Americana UK “Twang Factor” competition with their “All Of Our Dreams” music video.
