SOUNDS FROM THE OTHER CITY – Salford Manchester 3rd May Sunday 2015
Posted: April 28, 2015 in FESTIVALS, MUSICTags: Manchester, Salford, Sounds From The Other City
Grey Lantern are now veterans of Sounds From the Other City. Since their birth in 2010, they have made a name for themselves as a tour-de-force of a promotions team around Manchester, taking over many of Manchester’s finest venues in Soup Kitchen, Big Hands, Gullivers, Kraak and First Chop Brewing Arm.
The team are used to taking over interesting and out of the norm spaces and in 2015 alone they have brought the likes of Spectres, Hookworms, Vision Fortune and Hartheim (their debut headline show) to the city. Now the team turn their attentions to Sounds From the Other City, and their very special collaboration with Faux Discx at The Angel Centre, we caught up with main man Simon Catling to see what we can expect come May 3rd.
Sounds From The Other City // Sunday May 3rd 2015 // 3pm-4am // Various Venues // Chapel St // Salford.
Sounds From the Other City festival (SFTOC) is a celebration of new music and performance, uniting the cream of the national and international scene with some of the city’s finest independent promoters, collectives and club nights. Happening regularly on the May Day Bank Holiday each year along the Chapel St corridor of the historic city of Salford 2015 sees us enter our 11th year.
This year, we welcome back some of our favourite independent promoters like Now Wave, Hey! Manchester, Grey Lantern and film/music collective Video Jam, as well as new faces such as comedy & music pioneers Sham Bodie, party specialists Good Afternoon and the infamous SWAYS records. We’re venturing into some previously unused spaces (railway arches & new retail space at Vimto Gardens), sticking with long-time favourites (First Chop, The Angel Centre and, of course, Islington Mill ) and calling back to Arms at the Salford and Kings!
You can head over to the line-up page, to sample the sights and sounds that are appearing this year but, more so than most festivals, the real star of the show is the fabled Sounds atmosphere. And thats made by you. So abandon any previous plans and get yourself down to Chapel St on the May Day Bank Holiday.
