The Dimestore Dirtbags are a musical duo (Randy Horton and Sarah McConnell) performing alt-country and folk original and cover songs, leaning to the ironic. Entertainment is guaranteed!
Dominic Carlton Jones plays an atmospheric, semi-acoustic version of post-punk, and was formerly signed to Manchester’s prestigious German Shepherd label (along with the likes of Poppycock and The Harveys). He was also a Salford Star award winner for an album of punk poetry in 2018. He and his band have released a number of albums which you can hear at https://dominiccarltonjones.bandcamp.com/
The Blazing Snowmen have been described as “Alan Bennett backed by the Lancashire Doors” and are one of Manchester’s most interesting and longest established bands. Their observations of human foibles are expressed in their sardonic satirical lyrics, often at their own expense, as they reflect on expanding waistlines and recently-developed tastes for asparagus. They will also have a new album out any time shortly! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_klzNwedioGXtwi5dwmgvpCnJ9Wpgskm_8
