About the event
From See Tickets's listing
Sam Sweeney and Grace Smith are two of the most exciting and sought-after fiddle players on the English folk scene today. Deeply rooted in tradition yet constantly pushing musical boundaries, they bring together a shared passion for reimagining archive material, championing new compositions, and creating music that is both authentic and forward-looking. Sam Sweeney - "one of the defining English fiddle players of his generation" (Mark Radcliffe) - is a multiple BBC Radio 2 Folk Award winner, a founding member of Leveret, former artistic director of the National Youth Folk Ensemble, and a veteran of the iconic Bellowhead. His solo work, including the acclaimed Made In The Great War, has cemented his reputation as "Britain's Premier Fiddler" (Songlines). With a career spanning collaborations with The Full English, Eliza Carthy, Fay Hield, Jon Boden, and more, Sam's influence on the English folk revival is profound. Grace Smith is a compelling fiddle and viola player whose distinctive sound draws from English tradition while embracing innovation. With her trio - featuring Sam Partridge and Bevan Morris - she released the acclaimed album Overleaf in 2023, hailed by Klof Mag as "the exciting future of instrumental folk music." Grace also performs with French dance band Cri du Canard and Katie Doherty & the Navigators.…

How I list these
Everything here comes from the feeds of the ticket and experience sellers I work with: See Tickets. That's a lot, but it isn't everything on in York: venues that sell their own tickets, or sell through sellers whose feeds don't reach me, won't show here yet.
Events are in date order, and a show on several dates appears once, on its first, with how many more there are. Things to do any day start with the seller's own UK picks, then those rated 4.5 or more, guided before self-guided, shared before private, then by rating and price. Every ticket link is an ad: if you buy, the seller may pay me commission, at no cost to you. Commission never changes what's listed or the order.
A price is the seller's lowest for one ticket (or one person, when two book a tour together), as its feed gives it, and I've checked on each seller's own pages what it covers. See Tickets's includes its booking fee, and it adds an order fee to each booking (£1.25 to £4 on the events I checked), which I show beside the price. Where I haven't checked what a seller's price covers, or its feed is more than a day and a half old, I show no price at all.
I don't list resold tickets for football in England and Wales, or for any match in a UEFA or FIFA competition: selling or advertising them without the organiser's permission is a crime (section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994). Times are UK times. Events change and sell out, so the seller's page is the final word.
