Hello folks,
Hope you’re all well and enjoying the brisk spring showers lathering down on your faces. Summer is imminent and there is plenty to get excited about – Peace in the Park, the Tuesday Club Summer Carnival, plus we’re returning to Y Not Festival & Eden Festival this year. We also have a big show happening on the 9th July, so keep that date free, in the meanwhile though we have a small, intimate affair happened down at new local hotspot Regather.
On the 21st May, The Grand Old Ukes Of Yorkshire and The Chris Arnold Experience are performing their little hearts out…
THE GRAND OLD UKES OF YORKSHIRE
Duncan & Bassy make up Sheffield’s second best ukulele-based comedy act, and occasionally when the Everly Pregnant Brothers play a gig outside of town, they’re bumped up to first place for a glorious couple of hours. Expect all your favourite 90s and 00s hits delivered with such enchantingly magical whimsy that you’ll begin to wonder why the ukulele isn’t dominating today’s Spotify charts. You may have also caught the duo moonlighting as weatherman on local television across the country (hey, you need to pay the bills somehow).

THE CHRIS ARNOLD EXPERIENCE
Cool Beans head honcho Chris Arnold is back with a brand new powerpoint driven show after months estranged from civilisation caught up in a gang of feral wolves (don’t ask, but let’s assume that scamp Mickey Michaels is to blame). Expect a variety of top page wipes, some averagely amusing songs and multiple displays of pure pan pipe talent. You may know Chris from his work on The Cool Beans Television Show or his appearance in Bonnie Tyler’s Top 8 friends on Myspace circa 2004-2005.

We wanted to make it free entry, but there a few costs involved in hiring the venue. We’ve kept it cheap though. Tickets available at £3 (no booking fee) here.
Capacity is small, so we recommend getting an advance ticket, about half left at the time of writing this!
Cool Beans! X
