We’re delighted to welcome Frankie Archer back to Manchester!

Frankie Archer has exploded onto the electrofolk scene with music that transcends stereotypes using a combination of manipulated samples, synths, drum tracks and earthy Northumbrian fiddle and voice to capture her audience. Her aim? To shake up genres and traditions, challenge perspectives and call for a fairer future.

Winner of the 2023 Christian Raphael Prize, Frankie has been featured on Later… With Jools Holland and championed by tastemakers at BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music. Following the release of her debut EP Never So Red (November, 2023), she has supported the likes of The Futureheads and The Last Dinner Party. With her unique live set turning heads wherever she goes, Frankie is quickly establishing herself as one to watch in the alternative space.

Following on from a run of headline shows plus performances at Glastonbury and Deer Shed festivals in 2024, Frankie returns to the stage this autumn – including for this intimate show at Low Four.

‘Extraordinary’ – Jools Holland

‘Fascinating and intoxicating’ Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2
