Event information

Powerhouse are a five piece ceilidh band from Sheffield consisting of melodeon, flute, electric guitar, bass and drums. Formed in 2017, they have firmly established themselves on the Sheffield ceilidh circuit and further afield with well-received performances at Holmfirth Festival of Folk, IVFDF 2022 and 2025, Whitby Folk Week, Towersey Festival, Bromyard Festival and Broadstairs Folk Week under their belts. Brought together by a mutual love of rock, beer, general geekiness and ceilidh, they combine traditional tunes with rock riffage, heavy metal and pop culture to tempt even the most determined non-dancer, especially when John Brown is calling !!
