Richard and Jess Arrowsmith
As part of Heckety and more recently Crucible, Richard and Jess were an
early part of the import of Folk Music performers to Sheffield which is
turning the city, in the words of Sheffield Live's Thank Goodness
it's Folk presenter Dave Eyre, into the centre of the Folk
Universe. Expect something very special.

Albert's Skiffle Band
As for many people, skiffle was my route to an interest in traditional
music and Albert's Skiffle Band are Sheffield's leading proponents of
the genre. Expect some nifty footwork from Albert, as well!
