Blood Red Shoes, the English alternative rock duo from Brighton, bring their raw, high-energy sound to Manchester. Known for their blistering live shows, Laura-Mary Carter and Steven Ansell have built a reputation over two decades with six studio albums, including *Box of Secrets* and *Ghosts on Tape*. Fans can expect a setlist spanning their career, from early singles like "It's Getting Boring by the Sea" to newer material.

Having played major festivals like Glastonbury and Reading and Leeds, their live performance is a masterclass in minimalist rock. This Manchester date is a chance to see them up close in a club setting, where their sound truly thrives.
