It's billed as follows: "An evening with Blind Jack and friends" featuring CHRIS SIMPSON of MAGNA CARTA (a solo set of his Dales-themed songs) An evening of Yorkshire folk lore, music, songs, dance and drama. Support includes special guest BELLA HARDY (BBC Young Folk Awards finalist) and NICK HALL.

It'd be great to get some 'Catters along Cheers |

We may also be getting an appearance from Bella Hardy's bandmates from Ola, who were finalists in the BBC's Young Folk Awards not long ago.
