Stay Fresh Fest returns to Manchester in 2017
Get over the January blues in style, as The Deaf Institute and The Skinny present Stay Fresh Fest 2, a celebration of the most vital new music in the North
Following its inaugural two-floor live music party in September, Stay Fresh Fest returns to Manchester's Deaf Institute on 28 January 2017 for a second go, with cosmic explorers Henge, Halifax surf-poppers (and new Heavenly Records signings) The Orielles, and Luxury Death, the new project from Ben Thompson of Nai Harvest, among the first acts to be announced.
Scuzzed-out garage rockers Heavy On The Magic, Sheffield's lo-fi noisepoppers Seize The Chair and riff-heavy sludge monsters Mums are also set to play, with more yet to be unveiled.
Early bird tickets are now available, priced £6. Keep your eyes on theskinny.co.uk for more details on the line-up in the coming weeks – for now, here's the awesome poster:
Last year's show featured knock-out sets from Pink Kink, Peaness and Ethan and The Reformation, and this follow-up fest promises another selection of the freshest bands from across the North and beyond.
