A BAND which played at Glastonbury this year is coming to Cheshire next month.

‘The Little Unsaid’ band will kick off this autumn’s Salt Works Sessions at Cheshire’s Lion Salt Works Museum on October 22.

The band has earned itself a reputation as a ‘must-see’ live act on the independent music scene.

Doors and the bar at the Northwich-based museum will open at 7.15pm with music starting at 8pm.

Parking is free, and tickets cost £15.00 and can be bought at danarts.org/events/the-little-unsaid/ 

‘The Little Unsaid’ takes in elements of alt-folk, electronica and alt-rock.

Fronted by award-winning composer, songwriter and producer, John Elliott, the band has released five studio albums.

During Covid, John collaborated with artists including Billy Bragg and Frank Turner to raise money for the Music Venue Trust and also composed for theatre and film. 

Councillor Louise Gittins, leader of Cheshire West and Chester Council, said: “’The Little Unsaid’ is an inventive and successful band with lots to say.

“I’m delighted that a band that has played at this year’s Glastonbury Festival will now be performing a gig at the Lion Salt Works Museum.

“It promises to be an unforgettable night of music by a band that loves live performances.” 

The Lion Salt Works Museum has won ten awards since opening in 2015 after a four-year £10m restoration, including winning the National Lottery’s top award for heritage projects in 2016.

Cheshire’s Lion Salt Works Museum tells the story of salt in fun and interactive displays, including a sound and light show that evokes the steam rising from the giant salt pans.

In addition to a children’s play area, shop, butterfly garden and café, there are also year-round activities.
