A triple headliner of deliciously contemporary DIY punk and alt rock, featuring CHROMA, Currls, and BERRIES, to celebrate International Women’s Day 2025.

The Fernweh take over Future Yard on Friday 7th March for a night of their very own patented blend of psych-folk rock n roll, playing their eponymous debut album for us live.

The distinctly English, coal-fired translation of the acid-soaked culture of creatively liberated, seventies America, a world of The Magic Roundabout, Anne Briggs, Fairport Convention’s ‘Liege and Leaf’ and Tales of the Unexpected, has left an indelible mark on the psyche and, therefore, the lustrous songwriting of The Fernweh. It is a sound of delicate vocal harmony, slinking organ, manic guitar solos and grounded, kitchen-sink-drama imagery, as revealed in their debut single, The Liar – released on Skeleton Key Records back in the heady days of January 2018.

After a decade or more of playing as able ‘side-men’ to some of Liverpool’s most renowned musical exports, Jamie Backhouse (guitars), Ned Crowther (vocals and guitar) and Oz Murphy (keys/saxophone) gathered together to make the album they always knew they could make, based on a pure and profound love for a golden era for British and US folk rock.

Paul Molloy + Edgar Jones support.

AGMP Concerts and MVT Cohorts presents Laurence Jones at Future Yard on Saturday 8th March.

Labelled “The next Eric Clapton” by Buddy Guy, Laurence Jones, the multi-award-winning guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter born in Liverpool, released his 8th studio album ‘Bad Luck & The Blues’ in 2023 which charted #1 in The Official Jazz & Blues Charts in The UK. Hailed “The future of the blues” as Classic Rock Magazine aptly puts it! With his impressive prize cabinet of awards and a place in the British Blues Hall Of Fame, he’s one of the UK’s greatest guitarists.

Pixie Cut Rhythm Orchestra supports.

Future Yard are proud to team up with long-time collaborators Events471 to present Navigation Festival.

Danny & The Champions Of The World perform at Future Yard on Sunday 23rd March 2025.

Bringing with them an expansive rock and soul sound, akin to the likes of The War on Drugs dipped in Bluegrass and delivered in the titular’s Danny raspy, yearning vocals, they join us in spring in support of their brand new album, ‘You Are Not A Stranger Here‘ (out now).

Their seventh studio release and first since 2017’s ‘Brilliant Light,’ ‘You Are Not A Stranger Here’ is the sound of a band exploring new and surprising musical terrain.

The old contradiction that in creating something intensely personal, you can share something inspiringly universal, is at the heart of a remarkable new album by Danny & the Champions of the World. ‘You Are Not A Stranger Here’ is a formidable body of work that dates back to 2007. It’s full of brilliantly cohesive performances that come together to reach a new creative peak, founded on the most reflective and deep-seated lyrics to date by frontman Danny George Wilson.

It’s an intricate and beguiling tapestry of highly-crafted sounds by a band at the top of their game and a songwriter on an honest and unpretentious quest for some truth. If that sounds potentially dark and doom-laden, the results are anything but, on a record that’s deeply relatable, infectious and moving.
