Thu 3rd Apr – Pete Roth Trio – PRT have emerged as the new vehicle for the recently un-retired Bill Bruford! This will be a fabulous evening of new “interactive” music (that’s jazz to thee an’ me..!)

Sat 5th Jul – It’s almost a residency! Dave Bainbridge and Sally Minnear‘s duo return again to The Lantern with their Celtic flavoured songs and jigs. Sally’s amazing voice is a perfect counterpoint to Dave’s astonishing instrumental prowess. Sold out in 2024, book early to avoid disappointment!
Dave Bainbridge and Sally Minnear at The Lantern Theatre
Sat 4th Oct – American folk/blues/pop singer Angel J Snow has gently been making a name for herself on these shores over the last decade. Her sell out UK appearances in 2024 bear testament to the quality of her writing and performance. Rather looking forward to this.

Sat 11th Oct – Genre-hopping favourite, The Little Unsaid, are back in Sheffield, but on The Lantern’s stage for the first time! It’s going to be a marvellous night
