John Reilly and Boy on a Dolphin
Friday 14th July, Saturday 15th July // 8PM // £12.00
From dolphin trainer to charity hitmaker, Boy on a Dolphin frontman John Reilly has led quite the life. Fortunately, he’s more bothered about his music than creatures from the deep these days, so there’ll be no splash zone at this show at The Greystones. Come and take in the band’s warm, melodic, personal songs and enjoy a genuine Sheffield treasure.

Jim Lauderdale
Tuesday 18th July // 7:30PM // £15
With a career that is 28 albums deep with a number of hits written for other artists also, you’ll never have time to listen to the extensive body of work that Jim Lauderdale has put together. Instead, head down to The Greystones and take in the rootsy, country, bluesy stylings of a genuine master of compelling songwriting.

Standard Lamps
Tuesday 25th July // 7:45PM // £8.00
With a stint supporting The Who under their belt, what started as frontman Mike Wilton’s personal MySpace project has grown into a genuine contender on the live circuit. Don’t be fooled by the fact that Standard Lamps are a three piece – these boys really know how to make a noise playing their own brand folksy, indie blues with a raw edge. Come to The Greystones and find out why Roger and Pete rate them so highly.
