04.10.2010: Dan Mangan, The Travelling Band, This Frontier Needs Heroes,
We're VERY pleased to have Dan back. You were at The Lexington on 30 June right? You KNOW how good he is right? Well... see you there! Also now added are our Manc favourites The Travelling Band who like Dan, know how to rock a party, and what party is worthy of the name without Brad and Jess (This Frontier Needs Heroes). Now we have a show on our hands!

The sounds they generate took me back to my musical roots. Marvellous music to savour and enjoy? - Michael Eavis, Glastonbury Festival
Sparkling harmonies and bright chirpy guitars pepper this album full of bright-eyed optimism. - Jerome Blakeney, BBC Radio 6 Music
If you consider the term Mancunian Americana to be an oxymoron try listening to The Travelling Band. Brilliant. - Marc Riley, 6Music

This Frontier Needs Heroes
Frontier at MySpace
The Local loves This Frontier, and wonders how it's taken such a while to book these guys. Listening to This Frontier Needs Heroes is like having Brad and Jessica play in your backyard while the sun comes up. They play intimate, striped down songs full of honest personal stories of love, loss and longing for a better world. Both poetic and rowdy, Brad and Jessica will make you laugh and cry with their raw powerful delivery and delicate harmonies.
