About this event

Fundamentally one of the most gifted musicians to have played on Manchester’s music scene in the past ten years, Helea Gimeno returned to her homeland of Mexico to form the critically lauded psych-shoegaze-art rock combo, SEIREN in 2021. Mexico City loves SEIREN whose complex interweaving harmonics, deep grooves and virtuoso guitar playing, serve as the backdrop to a truly unique, powerful and beautiful voice. We at The Peer Hat are so happy to welcome them back to Manchester (their bass player is a Salfordian, no less, but we can let them off). This gig receives our very fullest approval. Manchester based alt-rockers WUPIE, is a group project formed and fronted by Ross Bagley. With influences ranging from jazz, electronica, and folk; wupies music is a dynamic mix of woozy guitars, ambient soundscapes, and loose-limbed rhythms – all tied together with humble songwriting and melodic sensibility at its core. Truly exciting and deeply skilled music. THE ARCANE HOPE is a vibrant and original music collective rooted in Lancaster, UK, born out of a shared passion for melody, community and creative collaboration. What began in 2020 as an exploratory sound and music art project led by local singer-songwriters has blossomed into a dynamic ensemble drawing on the talents of over 30 musicians aged from 8 to 78
