Nightbus

Nightbus are a brooding, cinematic two-piece blending post-punk, trip-hop, and late-night electronica into something dark, hypnotic and unmistakably their own. Formed in Manchester UK in 2023, their music captures the anxious beauty of city life after hours—dripping in atmosphere, bass-heavy and emotionally raw. With haunting vocals, reverb-soaked guitars, and minimalist beats, they echo the ghosts of The Knife, Portishead, early Cure, Chromatics and the XX, all while carving out a space all their own.

The early demos caught the ears of tastemaker label and magazine So Young, who released two 7"s from the band (one in 2023 and another in 2024) both selling out. With champions at BBC R1 and 6 Music, The Guardian, NME, The Fader, Brooklyn Vegan, The Line Of Best Fit, Dummy, DIY + Dork supporting the singles.

Underground shows followed leading to festival appearances at Left Of The Dial, Blue Dot, Manchester Psychfest and Float Along, headline shows at Supersonic in Paris, Manchester and London and support shows with Rock Action signings Bdrmm across the whole of UK.

Nightbus release their debut album 'Passenger' on Melodic, October 2025.
