calendar » Mancubist: Life is good in Manchester

Vashti Bunyan @ Bridgewater Hall

Technically a four-way headline night between Adem, Vashti, Vetiver and Juana Molina. All acts are good in their own right but solo ladies Vashti and Juana particularly stand out.

Tickets �12.50, �15, �17.50

Joanna Newsom @ Bridgewater Hall

Potentially one of the best gigs of 2007 – and it’s only mid-January! Newsom should sound amazing given the venue’s acoustics and support is from the equally worthwhile (but lesser-known) Alasdair Roberts.

Newsom will be backed by the Northern Sinfonia.

Low @ Academy

The slowcore trio return to Manchester. Expect mellowed-out people nodding and singing along in slow motion.

Shack @ Academy 3

Mick Head and co return to Manchester for the final time this year. Always a great live act and a welcome change from the usual Scouse rock. Tickets are a bit pricey, mind!
