Library Theatre
Sheffield

Description
I am absolutely delighted and so very excited to announce that Sheffield?s very own, award winning and Grammy nominated singer/songwriter/musician, Steve Edwards, will be doing a rare Home town gig in aid of Weston Park Hospital on Friday 10 May.
I have been asking Steve for many years to do a concert for Lynne?s Live Lounge and am over the moon that he?s finally said yes!
Steve?s will be joined by his world class band, the Momentum of Love and supported by local jazz / folk duo JUBE(see bio below)
Steve has chosen to perform at the Library Theatre in Sheffield City Centre bringing live music back into this hidden gem in Sheffield?s theatre district.
The historic Library theatre is a charming venue where the first drama performance came in 1934 and which later became a cinema.
Steve is passionate about Sheffield and it?s history and can?t wait to welcome you to the old school glamour and charm of this iconic venue.
