Howay Again

Free tickets

Sat 11th Oct |19:30
Queen’s Hall Arts Centre Library

Catch Howay Again live, a four-piece band bringing terrace classics and football chants from St James’ Park to the stage, made up of Paige Temperley (guitar and vocals), Cathryn Anderson (saxophone), Sophie Purvis (drums) and Glenn Lambie (bass).

Formed earlier this year, they first came together to provide a family-friendly matchday experience in support of Newcastle United Women’s Team, performing sets of terrace classics and football chants before games at St James’ Park.

Since then, they have played to over 150,000 fans on Newcastle’s Town Moor as part of the NUFC Carabao Cup celebrations, supported NUWFC at Kingston Park, and performed at the club’s end-of-season awards.

At the heart of it all, Howay Again encourage inclusivity in football and aim to inspire young people to believe they can achieve whatever they set their minds to.
