Sheffield’s vibrant and exciting brand new jazz orchestra is coming to town! Bringing big band swing classics, toe tapping numbers, and modern funky big band arrangements of pop tunes, this talented combo are sure to delight. Don’t miss it!
With Valentine’s Day a couple of weeks before and the joys of a Peak District Spring just around the corner, why not come and dance the night away at the famous Chinley Ceilidh?
Back by popular demand this is a wonderful night out for all the family. Music is provided by the amazing Barnstormers – a more talented collective you won’t find anywhere – and dance calling by the excellent and highly experienced Paul Smart.
Ticket price includes all the dancing and a very tasty chilli supper (vegetarian/vegan option available). There’s also a bar stocked and staffed by our lovely friends from the Green Lane Social, which may help with loosening the limbs, as well as banishing thoughts of making a bit of a twit of yourself. We all do it.
“Seeking Connection”
This is going to be the first live gig in the brand new rebuilt Chinley Community Centre. The gig also marks the revival of Blackbrook Valley Arts which pre-Covid brought a procession of really top class live music acts to Chinley.
Talented singer-songwriter and guitarist Charlie Moritz is by now a well-known face on stages all around the Peak District as well as further afield in the North West. In January 2024, against stiff, nationwide competition he was among the musicians chosen to attend national centre for the folk arts Halsway Manor’s prestigious Open House week. Having recently played successful gigs in Buxton Festival Fringe for the second year running, Charlie is delighted to be invited by Blackbrook Valley Arts to offer a launch of his brand new album ‘Seeking Connection’. Ably supported by gifted musician friends, Stuart Bootle (piano) and Tim Walsham (Chapman Stick), his wide-ranging repertoire of self-penned songs, along with a few well chosen covers, is destined to offer a really engaging, tuneful evening. Proceeds from the gig will be donated to the charity War Child.
