Horsebeach at Ramsbottom Festival

Ramsbottom Festival

Horsebeach at Ramsbottom Cricket Club, Manchester 17 September 2016 Tickets from £7.00 — Book now

Manchester’s own Horsebeach produce the kind of shimmering, dreamy pop music that’s perfect for an Indian summer festival like Ramsbottom. It’s a surprise, then, that the quartet cite ‘a damp Manchester afternoon’ as one of their key influences. Perhaps the escapism that their songs offer is a reaction to just these conditions?

Either way, come rain or shine, Horsebeach will whisk you away.
