Grab a drink and strap in for the ride, SCREAM IF YOU WANNA GO FASTER!!!

Specialising in discordant, hypnotic repetition, tales of boozy nights out, and radical politics, Loose Articles are a punk quartet with plenty to say. Their music speaks to all those determined to get through the age of austerity with tongue in cheek, pint in hand, and two feet firmly on the dancefloor. Playing repetition (repetition, repetition…) with ragged edges and a sardonic, sarcastic drawl delivered with fierce, in your face, punk-fuelled attitude, both feminine & threatening, Loose Articles are here to make a point.

Support: Ambiere

Ambiere explores the light and shade of life through her music. There isn’t a specific genre to best describe this artist’s work. However, If you could imagine Fred again, meeting up with Florence Welch and going to a 90’s rave (after they’ve meditated) then maybe that’s the best way. Although some may say that ‘ethereal dance/ electronic’ can also spring to mind.

By incorporating captivating melodies, big beats and atmospheric vocals, she’s ensured to take you as the audience somewhere you’ll be feeling joy, happiness, nostalgia and heartache all at once. Having gained support from BBC Introducing (Artist Of The Week,) and being Tameside Radio’s Local Indie music Artist of the week, highlights of Ambiere’s performances include supporting ‘LYNKS’ and performing at festivals such as Truck Festival, Blackthorn Festival, Y NOT Festival, Made In Manchester Festival and playing at MCFC’s City Square pre match Stage.

Support: Fig by Four

Fig by Four is multi-instrumentalist Sarah Statham, who weaves ethereal thoughts on connection, growth and change into a refreshing melting pot of alternative/indie musical storytelling. Her debut collection of songs, released as the album ‘Capture Reveal’, is hinged on pensive lyrics, dynamic rhythms, characterful guitars and ear-catching basslines. The 5-piece Fig by Four band have spent the last couple of years honing their electrifying and enthralling live set, receiving an embracing and impressive response from audiences with their colourful and dynamic energy.

The Project
The project is aimed at supporting young female/non- binary people into live music across a range of areas, from performance to sound and technical roles. Working with grass roots music venues across the North that are often overlooked on the mainstream touring circuits, the band Loose Articles will provide opportunities for participants to shadow them and their crew during get in, set up and sound check. There will then be a Q&A session to ask any questions of the band and tech. For any participants who may have a band or a group they are early stages of building, there is also an opportunity to bag a support slot for the evening gig, as well as free entry to the young people who get involved. Of course, everybody is invited to the gig in the evening to start the party!
