# Event Details - **Event Name**: THE NIGHTINGALES live at THE TRADES CLUB + Thomas Truax - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 pm – Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 10:30 pm - **Event Description**: Friday 27th February NIGHTINGALES £15 | £17 Doors open 8pm 18+ show Described in John Robb’s definitive book on post punk Death To Trad Rock as ‘The misfits’ misfits’ and comprising an ever-fluctuating line up, based around lyricist/singer Robert Lloyd, the Nightingales enjoyed cult status in the early ’80’s as darlings of the credible music scene and were championed by John Peel The group recorded a bunch of critically acclaimed singles and three albums, plus many radio sessions for their great supporter Peel. They also regularly toured the UK and Northern Europe, as headliners and supporting acts as diverse as Bo Diddley and Nico. In the late Eighties the Nightingales stopped working but following the occasional gig between times, they re-grouped in 2004. Since restarting the group have been more productive than ever – releasing seven vinyl singles, a couple of EPs, two 6 song mini albums, nine full length studio albums plus a movie soundtrack and a double live LP. They have regularly toured UK, mainland Europe and the USA numerous times, playing various festivals and recording many radio sessions along the way. 2019 saw the recording of a new album plus filming of a feature length Nightingales documentary film, King Rocker – written and presented by brilliant stand-up comedian Stewart Lee, directed by Michael Cumming (Brass Eye, Toast Of London, etc). Seemingly loved by all who have seen it, the movie was an Official Selection at the prestigious Sheffield Doc Fest and received its World theatrical premiere in June 2021, with more TV and cinema screenings around the globe booked for later that year and beyond. In 2024 the group had an amicable divorce from Tiny Global Productions to record a new album for their old pals at Fire Records. The Awful Truth was the first all new album for the label responsible for King Rocker and the reissues of the early catalogue. The follow up to TAT is due in 2026. Following the release of The Awful Truth the band was officially augmented by wonderful viola player Natalie Mason who had previously guested with the group on stage and record. In February 2026 the five-piece Nightingales will make their initial tour of the UK, their first city tour as headliners in three years. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/luddenden-foot/the-nightingales-live-at-the-trades-club-thomas-truax/200029255820754 - **Event Categories**: entertainment, music, festivals, comedy - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 71 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Luddenden Foot - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Holme St, HX7 8EE Hebden Bridge, United Kingdom - **lat**: 53.74063 - **long**: -2.01425 - **full address**: Holme St, HX7 8EE Hebden Bridge, United Kingdom, Luddenden Foot, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: THE NIGHTINGALES live at THE TRADES CLUB + Thomas Truax - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/24273b34e0a53917b1d59d567bca632d792164749af62f1ddacb9a7cc2683ab5-rimg-w1200-h632-dc132b31-gmir?v=1771978149 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is THE NIGHTINGALES live at THE TRADES CLUB + Thomas Truax being held? - **A:** THE NIGHTINGALES live at THE TRADES CLUB + Thomas Truax takes place on Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 10:30 pm at Holme St, HX7 8EE Hebden Bridge, United Kingdom, Luddenden Foot, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing THE NIGHTINGALES live at THE TRADES CLUB + Thomas Truax? - **A:** THE NIGHTINGALES live at THE TRADES CLUB + Thomas Truax is organized by The Trades Club. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
