Manchester Orchestra & The Front Bottoms Join Forces

Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia with a sound that belied their young age, Manchester Orchestra honed their post hardcore-tinged alt rock right out of High School. Fusing the grunge-edged strains of Silversun Pickups with the bittersweet folk intensity of Conor Oberst and Sufjan Stevens, prolific frontman Andy Hull traces deep emotional depths both sonically and lyrically, imbuing each song with a weight and power that has only grown since the band cut their teeth in the MySpace era. Don't miss material from 2017's A Black Mile To The Surface and 2011's Simple Math amongst other album's during the quartet's joint Winter tour with New Jersey folk punk outfit The Front Bottoms. 

No strangers to sharing the stage with MO, The Front Bottoms merge pop, rock and a punk rock spirit with abstract yet witty lyrics, recently adding an 80s-synth-pop-twist to things on their last offering, 2017's Going Grey. Formed in 2006 whilst its members were still in college, the band played the local New Jersey scene before releasing a series of DIY EPs on cassette tape. Consistently growing one of the most dedicated fan bases in indie music, the duo aren't afraid to take creative risks, and their experimentations with electronica in recent years has certainly payed off, culminating in danceable, melody-led anthems that stay true to their DIY core.
