50 years after a life changing gig at Manchester's Lesser Free Trade Hall was witnessed by like minded teenagers and spawned two of the most iconic bands in history and some would say, two new genres of music, we pay tribute to that music with a night of Post-Punk & Indie with two live tribute bands and a DJ set from Mutant Movement til 1am.

Frankly, The Smiths are a Scottish tribute act to The Smiths. The band formed in 2017, and since then have been performing all over Scotland on a regular basis, namely at the famous Ironworks in Inverness and the popular Sneaky Pete's in Edinburgh. The four piece delve deep into the indie legend's back catalogue, performing lengthy shows which please both the casual and devoted fan. The band have gained a dedicated following, all of whom believe that this is the only tribute act to see for the ultimate Smiths experience.
