The gig that closed the festival. A beautiful evening of original music from Joe Stilgoe and The Entertainers.

Our final gig of Buxton International Festival is this Saturday and there are just a handful of tickets left, grab yours now.

The people are the same everywhere you go, and they haven’t changed. The guy in the hat, the woman with the flowers, the one who can’t stop shouting at the drummer, the illicit lovers, the nervous fan, the faded star, the record executive who promises the world… The project is a love letter to the jazz club and the people who can’t live without it. Featuring an incredible band, harmonies to die for and musicianship to live for, we present THE ENTERTAINERS. Welcome to the Club,
