What's on

Del Scott Miller and Holly Redford Jones @ Libby’s Walled Garden Workshop

Event details

Effortlessly blending genres of guitar-driven sound, Holly Redford Jones is a Manchester-based artist from Chesterfield, known for her deep soulful voice, intimate observational lyrics, and charismatic stage presence. Her debut single, Big Blue Sky, was released in 2018. Her EP, Call Me When You Wake Up, produced and recorded in a home studio in Nashville, was released in 2020 and featured on BBC Introducing and Radio 1, leading to a headline slot on the Leadmill Stage at Tramlines festival 2021. Her most recent single, Affection, was recorded remotely during the pandemic. Having toured across the UK and beyond, Holly was also a winner of the 2019 Drake Yolanda Award for emerging artists. Alongside gigging as a musician, Holly also performs as a stand-up comedian. Her sell-out debut show, “I Was Dancing in the Lesbian Bar,” was at the Edinburgh Fringe 2024 (19th-25th Aug) in which she combines her three greatest passions: music, comedy, and lesbians.

Del Scott Miller is a guitar hero from Barnsley. Or, if that isn’t sufficiently glamourous, he’s an alt. folk songwriter, guitarist, composer and poet from South Yorkshire. Delivered with a brazen nod to his northern heritage, Del’s lyrics present subjects like loss, class and the underdog underpinned by thoughtful, accomplished guitar playing. In his 20+ years as a songwriter and performer, Del has supported Martin Simpson, Newton Falkner and blues virtuoso Ben Poole, as well as members of The Smiths, The Stranglers and The Libertines. He’s classically trained and a student of jazz, Del has also become a respected session guitarist, arranger and teacher. You can listen to his music at Bandcamp

Door open at 7:15 pm for a 7:30 start. We’ll be done by 10 pm! There will be a simple bar and snacks. Get your tickets HERE

Libby’s Walled Garden Workshop is a cosy, intimate venue on Chatsworth Road, Chesterfield. The workshop is equipped for sound and digital lighting and will operate a simple bar serving drinks during the performance. During summer months, guests can sit outside in the walled garden itself during the interval.
