DiS & Pineapple Folk presents... Gang Gang Dance, Bat For Lashes, Emmy and more
Posted:
We love a bit of off-kilter folk at the DiSopolis...
Hey hey! Manchester isn't just about Liam Gallagher wannabees, Boddington's and overpriced midfielders y'know - there's a thriving live music scene too!
We've palled up with ace promoters Pineapple Folk to bring you a delightful evening of dual-staged folk, psych-folk and americana-tinged acoustica. Check out those ridiculous genre terms I just used. IT'S JUST GOOD MUSIC, YO.
Full details are below. DiS has many more exciting events on the horizon, so keep your eyes peeled - however disgusting that may sound.

Gang Gang Dance
Bat For Lashes
