About this event
Harp & a Monkey perform – ‘The Annual Last Minute Seasonal Shopping Show (Matinee)’ We do like a tradition at Band on the Wall, and this has now become one of our annual favourites – the final Saturday matinee show of the year by the award-winning modern folk song and storytelling trio Harp & a Monkey. This show, which allows you to get a bit of last-minute Christmas shopping in before the doors open, is always a favourite featuring great music and heartfelt stories from the Mancunian troubadours. It’s a warm and conversational afternoon show that is guaranteed to leave you feeling uplifted and inspired. Suitable for all ages, you won’t want to miss out. And if you don’t want to take our word for it, look at what others have said about Harp & a Monkey… “Bold and brilliant” (The Observer) “Fantastic” and “fascinating” (Mark Radcliffe BBC Radio 2) “Inventive” (Mojo magazine) “Excellent” (The Guardian) “Unique” (folk legend Mike Harding) “Shiny as a new button” (Steve Lamacq BBC Radio 2).

Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
