NEW MODEL ARMY with special guests Mad Dog Mcrea play MANCHESTER



New Model Army are a legendary global underground cult band.

Formed by Justin Sullivan in Bradford in 1980, their beginnings were inspired by Northern Soul, Punk Rock and the incendiary atmosphere of the times.

Since then, they have had a long, creative and eventful journey. They have been massively influential in ‘post-punk’, ‘folk-rock’, ‘politico-rock’, ‘goth’, ‘metal’ and all kinds of musical sub-cultures but they have steadfastly refused to belong to any genre.
Without a ‘genre’ audience, and never having had a Top 20 hit single in any country, New Model Army still have album sales in the millions, have attracted some of the biggest producers on the planet (Glyn Johns, Tom Dowd, Andy Wallace, Bob Clearmountain) and have built up an almost religious devotion amongst fans.

This is a remarkable band - as hungry and focused as ever, with a continually regenerating audience and insatiable creative ambition.

Now into their 37th year, New Model Army show no signs of slowing down. “Between Dog And Wolf” (released in 2013 - together with it’s sister mini-album “Between Wine And Blood” in 2014), marked a major creative resurgence in the band’s long story. It received some of New Model Army's best-ever critical reviews and was their most successful album in more than 20 years, charting top 30 in UK and Germany. Meanwhile, Matt Reid’s 2014 feature-length documentary movie on the band (“Between Dog and Wolf - The New Model Army Story”) was shown in cinemas and at film festivals across Europe and recently became available on DVD, telling the story of this most unique of bands.  "Winter" New Model Army's 14th studio album was released to rave reviews on Aug 26, needless to say they’re really looking forward to getting out and playing it live.

Special tour guests are Mad Dog Mcrea a unique mixture of folk rock, pop, gypsy jazz, bluegrass and 'shake your ass' music. From self-penned songs of adventure, drinking, love and life, to traditional songs of gypsies, fairies, legless pirates and black flies - Mad Dog never fail to capture their audience with their infectious songs.

Hannah White has unveiled the first single from her upcoming third album 'Whose Side Are You On' - Catch Hannah Live at Chester Music Theatre Saturday 30th April

London-based singer-songwriter Hannah White has unveiled the first single from her upcoming third album 'Whose Side Are You On?' The immediately infectious I’ll Make You Strong is a three-minute illustration of her talents and showcases breezy melodies, hook-laden guitars and a deceptive lyrical ambiguity about stereotypical relationship roles. Hannah’s songs draw from a rich well of life experiences as well as an eclectic range of musical genres. A single mother who’s battled her way to gaining a loyal following of fans around the UK whilst maintaining a wholly independent approach to her career, her music is influenced by country, blues, pop and soul but remains distinctly her own. With a voice that can switch from a sweet Nashville croon to a bluesy holler and production work from Roger Cotton (BB King/Paul McCartney) and Gerry Diver (Christy Moore/Tom Robinson), Hannah’s songs have been heard on the airwaves of BBC London and BBC Introducing. She’s also wowed audie...
