16th August at Theatre Deli features a contrasting double bill of new music from Sheffield. balo will be bringing beautifully interactive and quietly explorative music for harp/drums, and Power Out a vibrant mix of beats, danceable grooves, loops and textures.
Then it’s back to Yellow Arch on 26th August for Sheffield-based Assembly Trio’s performance of a classic guitar/bass/drums trio line-up rooted in contemporary jazz.
Finally, Green Tangerines at Yellow Arch on 2nd September will be mixing urgent grooves, brass riffs and an energetic sax/trumpet frontline, drawing inspiration from 70s jazz fusion.
