Pave Headline Show - Manchester

 17/06/22 - Night and Day, Manchester.

After a short trip into Manchester, I headed down to Night and Day in the Northern Quarter of Manchester, to see a band I discovered thanks to The Hara. That band is Pave.

Sour Punch

First band up to perform was Sour Punch. A totally new band that I hadn't heard of before this gig. They had a great set. The small crowd that came down early loved them and a few were dancing, filming and just having a great time. This was lovely to see. I really liked this band and I think I would see them again if they did another gig in Manchester. They have an excellent sound. Hopefully, they'll be featured in more blog posts that I write. I wish Sour Punch all the best for the future and I hope I get to see them again soon.

Terror Cult

Next was a band called Terror Cult. Amazing name, amazing sound. They know how to rock a stage and get their audience going. These guys really know how to put on a show!! They are insanely good. They played a mix of original songs and a few covers. The covers really got people going as the songs are known unlike the originals. I really enjoyed watching these guys and I really hope I get to see them again. Hopefully while I am on my photography journey, our paths will cross again. You'll see me catching this band on home ground one day.

The Mantra

Final support act of the night was The Mantra. Again, another band I barely knew before this gig. They played a wicked set and more people had arrived at this point to enjoy them even more. Everyone had a great time enjoying their set. They even had a few supporters and friends turn up to see them as well which is always so lovely to see. I would love to see them again at another show, they're brilliant and I hope our paths cross again. Defo worth checking out The Mantra! They have talent!!

Pave

Final band of the night, and the headliners of the gig was the magnificent Pave. I discovered this band whilst watching The Hara a month ago at Manchester Academy. I only saw a short set back then, so it was nice to actually be able to see a full set and let them show me what songs they have already released, and what songs are due to be released in the future. Honestly, I'm so glad I turned up to a headline show, as Pave are now one of my favourites. They are super talented and have some of the most amazing songs I have ever heard. Sometimes all it takes is to go and see a band properly, support slots don't always show you what that band can truly do. I cannot stress enough how important it is to get to a headline gig if you like a band. Pave also drew quite a big crowd that filled up the entire venue. They had merch on sale and I couldn't resist buying a T-Shirt for myself. I love it, super comfy and stylish!
I will defo be seeing Pave again. They're now my favourites and I will be back time and time again for this band. Great show!!!
