Music is the Sun is back – and Sheffield’s top 10 live music venues

The Summer music festival returns to the Don Valley bowl; The Guardian lists the best gig venues in the city

Two articles relating to the Sheffield live music scene caught my eye this week, the first being in The Star, announcing that Sheffield’s Music in the sun music festival is to make a return this August.

There have been rumblings the last couple of years that the festival might make a comeback and the good news is that it now appears to happening, with Shaggy, Maxi Priest and a DJ set by Arctic Monkeys mooted acts.

Sheffield Newspapers music reporter David Dunn also wrote a piece in The Guardian on Thursday, listing the top 10 music venues in the city. I’d generally agree with his list, although haven’t actually been to all the venues he mentions. I did wonder whether The Leadmill deserved to be higher up than 10th in the list?
