ARTS AND HERITAGE CENTRE
The Town Mill exists to support the community of Strathaven and the surrounding areas by offering rooms and halls to hire for events, functions and exhibitions. Both the Granary and the Town Mill are run by volunteers who maintain it and also staff it during events.
Known throughout the county for years as the focal point for community gatherings and particularly musical events and exhibitions, it has had many uses throughout its life, even housing the local tourist information office for a short time.
Strathaven Town Mill was built in the 17th century in the shadow of Strathaven Castle, another well known historic landmark.

AcousticCafeNights@theGranary presents The Horsenecks
FRIDAY 17 APRIL , 8pm THE GRANARY
We are thrilled to announce the long awaited HORSENECKS all the way from the USA- to the Granary! The Horsenecks are Gabrielle Macrae and Barry Southern. Based in Astoria, Oregon, they are two multi-instrumentalists who have come together from traditional music backgrounds and found a sound that weaves through layers of influence that include early Appalachian fiddle and banjo music, country, classic bluegrass and original folk.
Gabrielle's fiery fiddle style is the result of being raised in the Old Time music hotbed of Portland, OR and being exposed to the fiddle traditions of the Southeast US through years of traveling to festivals and learning from some of the greatest players in the genre.
Liverpool native Barry Southern's banjo and guitar playing range from thrilling and high-octane to moody and captivating, and his versatility shines whether flatpicking, playing clawhammer, or driving three-finger banjo. Now deep in the world of songwriting, they bring together their background in traditional music and modern influences across many genres to create a catalog of songs that speak to their place in the evolving story of traditional music.
Together they create a distinctive sound, rooted in tradition but fully their own, with their powerful harmony singing front and center. The Horsenecks continue to set a new standard in today's traditional music scene with years of touring under their belts, appearances at major festivals in the USA and the UK and four critically acclaimed studio albums.
Door entry of £10 includes filter coffee, tea and delicious home baking.
Doors open 7.30pm, Children under 16 free. Limited seating. Come early to avoid disappointment.

Low Flying Pigeon presents: SCOTT GIBSON "WORKING MEN'S CLUB"
SATURDAY 9 MAY, 8pm
"Working Men's Club" is a stand-up comedy show about the jobs that shape us - and the pressure that comes with them.
Drawing on his own working life, Scott takes audiences through years spent bouncing in nightclubs, working in bookies, call centres, dead-end shifts, and eventually finding his way into stand-up comedy. The show explores what work gives men beyond money: structure, pride, identity - and what happens when that starts to disappear.
Alongside personal stories, "Working Men's Club" tackles modern working culture, the myth of "loving what you do," the silent dignity of graft, and the growing impact of AI on jobs that once felt secure. Funny, honest, and unpolished in the best way, this is a show for anyone who's ever clocked in, kept their head down, and carried on.
Scott Gibson is an Award Winning Scottish stand-up comedian and podcaster. Known for commanding stage presence, dark observational humour, grounded storytelling, and an ability to connect with audiences through lived experience rather than gimmicks. His work blends humour with social commentary, focusing on modern masculinity, work, purpose, and the quiet realities of everyday life. With years of live performance experience across clubs, theatres, and festivals, Gibson delivers intelligent, hard-hitting comedy that connects instantly with audiences.
Following a renewed creative push and a strong return to live performance, Scott is touring a brand-new hour of stand-up. Often described as "Irvine Welsh meets Billy Connolly" (The Evening Standard), Gibson's comedy is fearless, honest, and deeply human-rooted in story, delivered with bite, and unafraid to sit in the darker corners.
2026 also marks 10 years since Scott became the first Scottish comedian to win Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Fringe, and "Working Men's Club" is not a victory lap-it's the opening chapter of what comes next.

AcousticCafeNights@theGranary presents:
The Eldery Brothers
FRIDAY 15 MAY, 8pm THE GRANARY
We are delighted to be welcoming to the Granary, veterans of the International music world, THE ELDERLY BROTHERS - an exciting five piece band consisting of:
Rob Mairs on 5 string banjo
Seán O’Rourke on vocals, acoustic guitar, harmonica and flute
Kenny Robertson on vocals and guitar
Colin Finn on vocals and percussion
Jim Divers on vocals and double bass
The members of the band have a long history stretching back to the late 1960s. Rob and Seán first played together back in 1968 when they were exploring the music of the Incredible String Band and Bert Jansch as well as Americana influences such as Doc Watson and Woody Guthrie. Rob has recorded bluegrass (with Old Hickory), ragtime (with Banjo Cocktail) and folk-rock (with the JSD Band).
Kenny Robertson, who has an uncanny memory for lyrics, was born in the Gorbals and now lives in Strathaven. He has played on stage, TV and radio with several pop, folk and rock, bands – one of which included Seán and Colin. Having discovered their shared taste in music, they amalgamated with Rob and Jim in the current line-up.
Seán and Colin also played with Jim in the JSD Band whose material always included American-influenced blends of folk, country, blues, bluegrass, and rock traditions. You can expect to hear some songs and tunes that inspired the band throughout their formative years. Not to be missed!
Door entry of £10 includes filter coffee, tea and delicious home baking.
