British all-female rock band Girlschool play The Craufurd Arms on their Winter Metal Meltdown UK tour, co-headlining with RAVEN and Alcatrazz.
Girlschool are playing The Craufurd Arms on Friday 27 November, co-headlining with Raven and Alcatrazz. It's part of the Winter Metal Meltdown UK tour, so you've got three bands on one bill rather than just one.
Girlschool are a British rock band formed in the 1970s new wave of British heavy metal, and they're still active after more than 40 years as the longest-running all-female rock band. They grew out of a school band called Painted Lady in 1975 and found their feet in the early 1980s, when they put out three albums of punk-tinged metal that did well across the UK. Original members Kim McAuliffe and Denise Dufort are still in the band, along with long-tenured member Tracey Lamb.
They've kept working through the decades, and more recently released a career-spanning anthology in 2022. Around that time they were also working on a new album for 2023, so there's a mix of the early records and newer material to draw from. The Milton Keynes date is one stop on the Winter Metal Meltdown UK tour, which brings them and the other bands to venues across the country.

So, you've got Girlschool, Raven, and Alcatrazz all on the same night at The Craufurd Arms on 27 November. It's a triple bill, so it's a longer evening than a single-band show.
