Gary Meikle: Yer Maw
Gary Meikle: Yer Maw returns to the stage with another new show which has quickly become the yearly norm for him now, coming to Ulster Hall on 31 October 2026! Hi guys it’s me, Gary. These blurbs do my head in if I’m honest, each year I need to sit and write one out before I even know what stories I’m gonna share, well I mean I don’t have to write one I could pay something else to do it but f*** that they’d just write some mundane vague crap which I can clearly do myself. At least this way you know I've written it personally. So what's the new show about? Again, I don’t yet, but it will contain at least one ‘yer maw’ Joke, what I do know is that it’ll be another brand new 80-90 minutes of stories, opinions and observations about me and my family as well as you all its always about people and the mad shit we do, sometimes animals but more often than not it's about people and the stupid scenarios we end up in. I wonder if that's now enough wordage to cover the minimum blurb requirement? I guess we'll see, and I’ll see you all soon maybe - oh, one last thing, my show isn’t suitable for small people, some of it might be about them, in fact it definitely will but, yeah they ain’t getting in :)

Jack Savoretti Sold out
Jack Savoretti is coming to Ulster Hall on 02 November 2026! Midlife suits Jack Savoretti. Now almost 20 years into his career, Jack has released 8 studio albums to date, including 2 UK number 1’s and 4 UK top 10’s; a prolific output by any standard. At 41 years of age, his forthcoming 9th studio album ‘We Will Always Be the Way We Were’, released 10th April 2026, showcases a self-acceptance that only comes with life experience. Carl Jung described mid-life as being the time when your ego becomes less of a focus and the people around you become more central to your role in life. It’s the point where you take stock and decide whether you are happy with the person you have become, the decisions you made to get there. This is where Jack Savoretti finds himself right now. Had I made this album 10 years ago, people may have seen it as a u-turn, like going backwards. But now it feels full circle- it’s a closure, a summary of everything I’ve done so far. "I went back to record it in Notting Hill, where my career started. The last two albums I made were concept albums (Europiana, Miss Italia), indulging in different sounds, they gave me that space to come back to doing an album about and of myself.” Jack has always excelled at love songs and ballads, but this album is a love letter not to a person, but to this time of life, to the beautiful middle. This can be summed up with the track ‘Do It for Love,’ written about why Jack still makes music- for the love of it. For the love of the audience, the game, the band, the freedom to create a timeless reality. It’s an affirmation in song form. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a healthy amount of self-doubt on the record too (‘Time Will Tell’, ‘Tick Tock’), but it’s the ongoing questioning we all have that reflects the universal experience of life– the ups and the downs, the beautiful moments that play out alongside the painful ones. The loss of a parent, the birth of a child… midlife throws up the most polarising of experiences. The title track ‘We Will Always Be the Way We Were’ is a song that describes the relationship with his wife of 15 years; a love letter to how everything in your life can change, but how those closest to you and your shared experiences are what see you through. It’s the perfect life anthem, so it became the perfect fit for the album title. It’s an album that sees Jack entering an elder statesman-like role, one that Jack can fill easily. An artist who never gave up his vision or compromised his craft, Jack is one of the few UK singer-songwriters from the mid-00s who is still relevant and still plying his trade. Featuring both KT Tunstall (‘Tempting Fate’), another who came up in the same scene as Jack, and new kid on the block Steph Fraser (‘Only Gonna Cry for You’), it’s a merging of eras to create a timeless sound. The sound of Jack hitting his stride.
