Taking over a long list of beloved venues on Sun 1 May, are the likes of Salford formed psychedelic noise collective, GNOD, Edinburgh born singer-songwriter, Hamish Hawk, and regulars of Gilles Peterson’s We Out Here festival and a favourite of the late, great Virgil Abloh, Manchester neo-soul and RnB band, Lovescene.

Other standout names in the latest announcement include female DJ collective, Queer Latifah, Amsterdam’s indie-pop powerhouse, Pip Blom, as well as RnB and pop sensation, TYSON.
