Brudenell Social Club is without doubt one of the top Live Entertainment venues in Leeds, and they have an astounding wide and varied selection of Live Music, virtually every night of the week. Their own Website gives a more detailed and up-to-date picture of forthcoming shows, and I can do no better than quote from that website:

“The Brudenell is a lively and fun loving venue that embraces Music and Art under a wide and diverse umbrella that has no boundaries.”

The Brudenell has been in the past most famous for hosting secret gigs for bands like Franz Ferdinand and the Kaiser Chiefs. However, it has been a centrepiece of the Leeds Music Scene for a number of years, and hosts events most nights of the week, which are put on by a variety of local promoters, covering a wide spectrum of genres.

The name Brudenell is said to come from the family of James Thomas Brudenell, who owned Kirkstall Abbey after it ceased to be a monastery in 1539. Brudenell was also Earl of Cardigan and the connection explains why many roads in the Hyde Park area of Leeds are named Cardigan and Brudenell, and therefore how the Brudenell itself got its name.

The Brudenell Social and Recreational Club has a long and varied history and was formed on December 8th, 1913, it bought its first premises and current land shortly afterwards where it is still located today”

On Saturday 12th April there will an appearance from The Style Councillors plus Guests. The Style Councillors claim to be the world’s only Style Council Tribute, and are celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the Band’s hit single ‘Shout to the Top’, and the Brudenell Gig is the only Yorkshire stop-off in their 2025 Tour.
