Now open: Cloudwater’s new Deansgate bar at Low Four studio and venue

Online music TV platform Low Four is launching a brand new recording studio and venue on Deansgate Mews at Great Northern Warehouse, with a bar from Cloudwater, who will be supplying the beer for the live shows as well as collaborating on content that will support emerging local talent. It opens on Thu 16 September, with a live show from Manchester electro-punk-rockers W.H. Lung which will also be streamed on LowFour.TV. 

Low Four (previously based in Old Granada Studios) produces high quality, live-streamed and pre-recorded content to spotlight Manchester, supporting its international reputation for music and culture, by showcasing exceptional emerging local talent alongside nationally and internationally recognised touring acts. Originally launched in 2016, Low Four’s first home was the old recording and dubbing suite at the old Granada Studios site on Quay St until redevelopment began. On Deansgate Mews, they will be joining a growing community of new artisan businesses that include Holy Grain Bakery, The Butcher’s Quarter, Dormouse Chocolate, Three Hands Deli and Another Hand Restaurant.

Low Four has quite the resumé, having worked with a vast array of acts, including live streaming performances from Everything Everything, Alexis Taylor, This is the Kit, Mew and Poliça; recorded albums for GoGo Penguin, Dutch Uncles and Francis Lung, and collaborated with organisations from the Hallé Orchestra to Manchester Science Festival. The studio will resume its talent development scheme which includes free studio and production development time awarded to Manchester’s most promising artists, as well as nurturing technical skills, most notably through its partnership with the University of Salford, functioning as a teaching and research hub.
