We’re delighted to be promoting Funke and the Two Tone Baby’s Manchester headlining debut!

Funke-Two-Tone-Baby-Castle-Manchester

Funke and the Two Tone Baby is a one-man sonic explosion. Uncategorised and uncharted. Jammed halfway between frenzied alt-blues and metronomic dance beats.

Funke combines guitar and harmonica with beatboxing and effects, which seamlessly collide the organic with the mechanical to create a fresh sound of unstoppable rhythm and unrelenting melody.

Opening the show is Manchester’s own The Bear Around Your Neck, who the Quietus described as an ‘oddball psych songwriter’.

Buy tickets now. Tickets are available from the bar (no booking fee), Piccadilly Records, Vinyl Exchange, WeGotTickets.comTicketline.co.uk and on 0871 220 0260.
