After back to back sold out shows Gustaffson return to Manchester for their biggest show to date at YES Pink Room.

Gustaffson are back with a UK tour in 2026. The five-piece Manchester outfit are on a journey to redefine what it takes to make ‘real music’ as a band in 2026. They encourage their fans to pick up the lyric book, unite as a collective and disconnect from the numbing comfort of the algorithm.

Gustaffson are quickly becoming renowned for their curation of venue-specific, standalone shows that become calendar shaping events for their audience.

Their debut elbow produced album Black & White Movie achieved critical and commercial success, reaching #14 in the Official Record Store Chart as well as being featured in Rolling Stones’ ‘7 Albums You Need To Hear This Week’. It earned high praise from Jo Whiley, Chris Hawkins, Guy Garvey, and Gaby Roslin. The band celebrated with a spectacular sold-out show at London’s Bush Hall.

They finished 2025 with an elbow produced single Dance To The Algorithm. A retro funk anthem which featured on ITV Granada Introducing and had Gustaffson included in The Manc and Audio North’s ‘best artists of 2025’ alongside Richard Ashcroft and The Charlatans.

This year the band will return to the studio to record their second album with elbow’s Craig Potter.
