Propped up by an array of weird and wonderful musicians, this individual sound will grip you by the throat and then take you out for dinner. www.facebook.com/kdobsonmusicThe NixDescribing their genre as Sponge and Squeeze, The Nix take their influences from many different backgrounds and combine them to make the individual The Nix sound. These influences span from Psychedelia through to hip-hop. The beautifully blended sounds of the three guitarists and the funk inspired bass and rumbling drums result in personal hand-crafted tracks that get you moving.The Psychedelic Indie five-piece is made up of Nathan Shepherd (Lead Vocals and Guitarist), Hayden Anwar (Lead Vocals and Guitarist), Andrew Shaw (Bass), Thomas Bulger (Lead Guitarist) and Joshua Walker (Drummer). Forming when they were young, this band has a tight knit brotherhood after being friends throughout Primary and High School and would describe their time as a band as something which made them who they are. They could not imagine doing anything other than making music which is what they all love and has resulted in all of their time and effort being music based since 2015.TOBIASTOBIAS is a new,innovative sound from Halifax born young songwriter Tobias Stephenson. Based in Manchester, Tobias encapsulates his sound from influences such as Arcade Fire,The War On Drugs and The Velvet Underground. Using intricate guitar melodies to juxtapose his booming, room filling voice. Tobias has engrossed audiences with an acoustic guitar, and dazzled further with a full band line up. Combining his influences with his previous background working with indie band 'Violet Disguise', Tobias has generated a new original sound akin to nothing in the Manchester scene. Penning original material away from his spin at indie, Tobias has worked on engrossing new listeners with delicately written alternative music that pushes all boundaries and taboos.
