We're a four-piece who met each other at Lancaster University three years ago and after completing degrees, masters degrees and stints on the dole, settled in Manchester last year. In that time, we've been establishing ourselves on the Manchester circuit, appearing on Manchester GMR's Live Lounge show and headlining Manchester venues such as Academy 3, Night n Day Cafe, The Late Room and The Roadhouse. Our demo The Looter's Handbook was completed in January and is available at www.myspace.com/palmstruck1, so please have a listen. We'll be releasing our first EP/album in the autumn. We supported Two Gallants at the Night n Day in February, and have since been spotted providing support to acts such as Mohair, Scissors For Lefty and Volcano!. You can regularly find us playing somewhere around Manchester, so check out our upcoming venues and come see us. We aim to be original, listenable, lovable and watchable. Finally, any recomendations of places outside Manchester to play would be really appreciated. Cheers.

NEXT GIG: 22nd July, Night and Day Cafe, Oldham Street, Manchester.
