Pitmen Poets

About this event

A night of songs and stories, laced with North East humour and humanity. From Billy Elliot to Auf Wiedersehen Pet from When The Boat Comes In to The Likely Lads

After their hugely successful tour of 2024, the public demand for more has persuaded the Pitmen Poets to ride again…

Ex-Lindisfarne singer and songwriter Billy Mitchell, Warhorse Songman, renowned singer and instrumentalist Bob Fox, and Award winning Durham songwriter Jez Lowe, individually and collectively celebrate the triumphs, tragedy, and humour of the North East’s industrial heritage, in an evening of great music.
