Spring season 2023 at Selby Town Hall

The lineup includes chart topping indie, folk and rock icons, Ivor Novello and BBC Folk Award winners, Grammy and Juno nominees, darlings of daytime radio playlists and prime time comedy stars, and even a bona fide soap legend. There is also a brand-new, multi-buy ticket offer in place, providing percentage discounts on a sliding scale for purchases of two, three or four shows.

The Town Hall's reputation as a top touring destination for TV name comedians and future arena fillers continues with visits from Mock The Week regular and host of BBC2's Lightning, Zoe Lyons, an intimate warm up show for The Mash Report's Geoff Norcott and returns for a pair of Radio 4's most popular stars, Alfie Moore and Simon Evans. The venue also welcomes two of UK comedy's best kept secrets, Chris Ramsey's regular tour support, Carl Hutchinson, and Live At The Apollo guest Scott Bennett - tipped by many to be the scene's next breakout star. The venue's popular new comedy club, The Comedy Network, also returns for another run of four great value mixed bill nights.

A host of top-drawer singer songwriters will be appearing throughout the spring, including frontman of Scottish indie titans Idlewild, Roddy Woomble, Ivor Novello Award winner and former tour support to Foo Fighters and Rufus Wainwright, Scott Matthews, and New York's Radio 2 playlist regular, Nell Bryden.

The venue remains a popular tour stop for Americana artists from across the Atlantic, with roots music from Nashville's Rachel Baiman, Toronto's Juno Award nominated folk-pop duo Madison Violet and New Jersey's Sarabeth Tucek, a former tour support to Bob Dylan. There's also some righteous American country-folk from Erinsborough's Alan Fletcher, better known as longstanding Neighbours icon Dr Karl Kennedy!

Reformed soft rock legends Sad Café, creators of the Top 3 smash Every Day Hurts, visit in March, while there are also dates for Liza Pulman of hit cabaret trio Fascinating Aïda, accompanied by jazz chart topping pianist and singer Joe Stilgoe, and the world's greatest acoustic fingerstyle guitarist, Grammy nominee Martin Taylor MBE.

"We've got a bumper season of shows lined up with performers from the American deep south through to New York, Dublin, the Scottish islands and even a fictional suburb of Melbourne!" said Selby Town Council Arts Officer Chris Jones. "There are a really broad array of performances to choose from. I'm particularly looking forward to the return of performance poet Luke Wright with his Edinburgh Festival hit The Remains Of Logan Dankworth, as well as highly regarded Irish folk quartet The Jeremiahs, tipped to be the next big traditional act to emerge from Ireland.
