Firelight Trio is a mighty new group featuring Fatea instrumentalist of the Year 2023 Gavin Marwick (fiddle), groovily inventive accordionist/pianist Phil Alexander (Moishe's Bagel), and Ruth Morris (Outlander, HBO) on the beautiful Swedish nyckelharpa. They play European music that is evocative, inventive, wide-ranging, and endlessly exciting - a rich tapestry of lively Swedish polskas and Scottish reels, lilting French waltzes, toe-tapping klezmer, and dazzling original tunes.
'A veritable roots music supergroup' (RnR magazine).
'Deeply expressive, impressively virtuosic and cheekily sardonic, all in perfect measure' (Songlines).
'Simply splendid. Three musical giants' (RnR).
'Achingly beautiful' (Fatea).
Don't miss them!
Music of quiet intensity and uncommon grace, Constant Follower is the band built around Scottish songwriter Stephen McAll. Moving between Folk and dream-like Slowcore, their music is marked by its space, intimacy and emotional weight. The new album, The Smile You Send Out Returns To You, spent two weeks in the UK Top 20 and earned the project a third Scottish Album of the Year nomination. The band first came to attention with their acclaimed Shimmy Disc debut, recorded in Stirling and mixed by Kramer at Noise Miami. They have since appeared at SXSW, Cambridge Folk Festival, Glasgow Kelvingrove Bandstand (with Teenage Fanclub) and beyond, gaining international recognition for songs that explore memory, loss and the quiet strength of resilience.”

Most of our shows use ‘cabaret-style’ seating. This means that your seats will be unreserved, which allows you to decide where to sit when you arrive.
The stalls (downstairs) are set up informally, with chairs around small tables, for a sociable, relaxed atmosphere, and somewhere to put your drink. Cabaret seating also allows space for dancing, which is highly encouraged at Victoria Hall!
For those who prefer a more ‘traditional’ theatre experience, the balcony seats are laid out in rows and raked, ensuring all seats have an excellent view.
For parties of six or more, tables in the stalls can be reserved- contact us to reserve a table. If you have reserved a table, we ask that at least one of your party turn up at least 30 minutes before the performance start time, in order to secure your table.
We can always reserve seating or wheelchair spaces in the stalls for those unable to use the stairs- just let us know when you book your tickets.
Please note, online bookings are subject to a booking fee. Tickets can also be bought by phone on 01729 825718, or in person at our box office. Opening hours are 10am-2pm, Monday-Friday.
Show end times given are an estimate only. Doors open 45 minutes before show start times.
Settle Victoria Hall reserves the right to turn away any customers not adhering to legal requirements, government guidelines, and/ or venue safeguarding policies.
