Events on Thursday 9th April

“Hey folks. Although there has not been any official recommendation to do so from the government as of yet, and whilst our wonderful venue Trinity have assured us that they are taking every precaution to make the space as safe as possible, we have made the hard decision to alter the format of our live show. We feel this is the socially responsible course of action to take, and that we owe it to our most vulnerable audience members to take these precautions.”

“Players of all instruments and abilities are welcome but some basic ability to read music and, especially in the case of rhythm players, chord knowledge is helpful. The course is essentially a "playing" course with tutored ensemble sessions (two instrumental and one vocal). Any theory of improvisation and music will take place in this context. "Theory" sessions dealing with chord structure and other issues can be arranged at the time on a casual basis. Plenty of time in the evening for performing and jamming!”

“Rare Birds had been the culmination of three solo albums in seven years that the singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer released to widespread acclaim. His first, 2011's Gentle Spirit, a beautiful California dream of an album, is a classic by now and it won him the admiration and friendship of Graham Nash, David Crosby, Elvis Costello and Jackson Browne. His follow-up, Fanfare, was also well-received with Uncut calling it "a lavish musical epic, the work of a dedicated and stone cold studioholic." But now Wilson was looking for something completely new.”

“CRYING BEAUTY QUEENS (Manchester) are an atmospheric alternative rock band based in Manchester. Taking influence from Fugazi's melodies mixed with The Pixies' dynamics and a Cranberries kind of mood, they provide something unique to the Manchester Music Scene.”
