A former flour mill which first opened its doors as a music venue in 1980, The Leadmill has boasted performances from acclaimed artists like Coldplay, Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, Kings of Leon and more. After receiving an eviction notice in early 2022, the venue’s current management have been campaigning with the slogan‘We Can’t Lose Leadmill’, with former performers and local community figures rallying around it.
Alex Milsomwill hear from internationally-renowned musicians, community leaders, academics, and those with a personal connection to the venue seeking to discuss its future.
With exclusive access to the venue’s archives over the last four decades and an exclusive chat with the new management, listeners will hear the impact The Leadmill has had in the Yorkshire music scene, and the ongoing role it plays on community projects in Sheffield.
