Pat Lyons and the Sins Lead the Way at Moho Live

You've probably noticed of late that one of the bands Mcr Loves Music are championing are Pat Lyons and the Sins. And for good reason. Amidst a multiple genre evening at Moho on Friday they again proved that they have the sound, lyrics and look of all things potential. Albeit another short set of six tracks, you can tell that PLatS are quickly finding their footing in their live shows, and one fan we spoke to hopes they continues. Neil Bennett, a self proclaimed PLatS groupie mentions that "I hopes they make a real go of it" "some proper toe tappers that even got some of the Death Metal fans who were there to support another band interested"

Over recent years, indie rock has been full of anaemic, self loathing teens trying to understand what they're really all about; PLatS seem to have a knack of not only really knowing what they want out of a show, but finding what you like, regardless of musical taste, and throw it in the mix for all to enjoy. From rip roaring, almost anthemic classic indie rock to tidy little ballads their sound on Friday was better than ever. More Mature sound than the average indie band and not obviously trying to be anyone else.

Go listen.

Peace, Love and Music

ATT USA followers, Mancini Fires are one for you!

If you fancy a break from the main stages , have a listen to some new music in my old college buddies' band, Mancini Fires. Tiny little bit of Matchbox 20 sound to them mixed with some coldplay maybe??? Great vocals from Greg Foster and some guitar riffs. Listen out for some top bass playing too (#stuleason!)
definitely one to watch on the Manc music scene anywho, and a potential opener for the "Green Man Festival"  Here are the links...
