It’ll be a sweet thing! The Honey Drops will return to The Peer Hat to open the tightly sealed jar of original Soul & Rhythm & Blues they’ve kept away from Manchester for over a year. They’ll be back home, in that dark stage, in that cool alleyway, dripping all their own tunes and some obscure covers for you.

It’ll be a special one too, not only for the fact they’ll play live again after a good while, but also because it’ll be the last time with Ellie on vocals. Make sure you’re there with your best threads and ready for a hell of a farewell party for her.

The Beatnix Soul Club will be opening proceedings, and keeping the torch well lit after the live show with a bunch of 45s for your ears, hips, knees and ankles. £5. Doors at 8pm. Kick out at 3am. Be there when The Honey Drops.
