Synopsis

Celebrate a decade of soaring melodies and unforgettable live performances as Ilkley’s own Ten Fields mark 10 years together with a special hometown show at Ilkley Playhouse.

Over the past ten years, this five-piece band has built a reputation as a compelling live act, blending tight musicianship with rich, dynamic arrangements. Their melodic, guitar-led sound draws inspiration from the timeless songwriting of Crowded House, Fleetwood Mac and Jackson Browne, while echoing the expansive textures of The War on Drugs.

Expect strong vocal harmonies, beautifully structured songs and layered arrangements that move effortlessly between intimate, harmony-led moments and powerful, guitar-driven anthems.

Professional, polished and always engaging, Ten Fields deliver the kind of live show that stays with you long after the final chord rings out. Join them for a night of celebration, connection and great music - ten years in the making.

Members of the band have had music featured in independent film and television and have received national airplay on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 6 Music. They have supported artists including Chris Difford and Glen Tilbrook of Squeeze, ABC, Abigail Washburn and Simon Felice, and have performed at festivals and venues across the UK and Europe.

The band have recorded widely, including at Rockfield Studios in Wales, resulting in the release of their five-track EP The Rockfield Sessions.
