The Lounge Society - Independent Venue Week

Playing their own distinct breed of art-punk – taking in fleet-footed guitar and drum motifs, bite-and-bark vocals and popping electronics - Speedy Wunderground’s The Lounge Society have made quite the reputation for themselves in their short time together. After releasing their debut EP Silk For The Starving to universal acclaim in 2021 (“The Lounge Society are assuredly blazing their own path” – NME) the band toured extensively throughout the UK last Autumn, performing sold-out, enthralling headline shows across the country, before taking their first steps onto European festival stages. This autumn, they hit the road again, playing shows that include their biggest Manchester headline so far at Gorilla, and London’s Village Underground, before capping things off with a special homecoming show at The Trades Club in Hebden Bridge. Their highly anticipated debut album ‘Tired of Liberty’ was released in August of this year with producer Dan Carey (Fontaines D.C., Kae Tempest, Squid, Grimes) again at the helm.

We’re so excited to be bringing The Lounge Society to The Studio for our first Independent Venue Week.

Support will come from Manchester's Foxglove. Hailing from the outskirts of Manchester, the band draws deep inspiration from the 90s bands and dance anthems that defined their youth. This influence is clear to hear in their music, which blends euphoric melodies with lyrics that explore themes of nostalgia, youth, and growing up. Foxglove’s sound is both a nod to their childhoods and a fresh take on indie and pop music, being relatable with listeners who share their love for indie and dance music.

Also supporting are Nantwich's very own Unit 17.
