Man Overboard have been confirmed as the headliners for Pinky Swear Records' one day festival.
The event will take place at Manchester's Sound Control on Saturday May 2, when 16 bands will play across two stages at the venue.
Confirmed for the line up so far are Man Overboard, Moose Blood, Roam, Light You Up, Boston Manor, Trash Boat, Landmarks, Smile And Burn, Kamikaze Girls and These Minds. Six more bands will be announced in March.
The festival is the brainchild of Leeds-based DIY label Pinky Swear Records, who have worked with bands such as Neck Deep, Your Demise, Roam, Astroid Boys, Nai Harvest and Brutality Will Prevail.
Discussing the festival, Label co-founder Lee Burgess said:
"I want it to be a good mix of everything I'd want if I was to attend an indoor all day festival myself. That's all we've ever done when it’s come down to our releases anyway; so we’ve hit it with the same ethics. We’ve picked bands we like and bands we want to put in front of people. We’ve kept the cost down to just £12 per ticket, with no booking fee nonsense, for a total of 16 bands. No clashes so bands don’t have to compete and punters get to see everyone they want to; plus no barriers cause they’re just annoying at punk shows. We’re inviting some labels and distros down to sell records, and we’re gonna have freshly cooked meat and vegan food options available at prices that are ridiculous. We just want it to have a fun vibe all round."
Tickets are on sale now at the early bird price of £12.00. They will remain at this price until March 13 when they increase to £15.00.
