MANCHESTER GIGS IN MUSIC: June 2012 Pt.1
So a jubilee bank holiday weekend brings either an overdose of bunting and flag-waving for an out-dated institution or an excuse for a series of all-day gigs. Joining the returning Dot To Dot, Eurocultured and Parklife festivals in Manchester this June, there are one-offs this long weekend at Soup Kitchen (God Save The Queen daytime line-up featuring Wild Birds, The Louche, Champion Lover, Laser Dream Eyes and more), at Kraak (Jubilee Band Love-in featuring Sacred Paws, Butchers, Temple Songs, Sex Hands, Waiters and more) and Night & Day (British Wildlife Goes West featuring Wooderson, Bearfoot Beware, Cowtown, Klaus Kinski, Well Wisher, Sex Hands and more). The first cost £3, the last one £5 – bargains both.
This month also sees debut album launches for two Manchester-based bands both featured on the mixtape below: grizzled country-rock Americana from Blind Atlas and noisy alt-rock pop-hooks from Crumpsall pipe-dreamers Easter. And starting it all off tonight is the excellent three band bill at Fuel courtesy of Manchester Scenewipe: Emperor Zero, Embers and – see below – Uranium Lake. Even more of a bargain – that’s free of charge.
As ever a mixtape [63 mins / 74 MB] of bands playing Manchester this month to help inform your gig-going decision-making - link in the post below this one.
