365Bristol announced as Media Partner for Bristol Sounds

Posted on: 08 Jun 2017

As a result of the affiliation with the four-day festival, taking place in the Lloyds Amphitheatre between the 21st-24th June, we have discount tickets up for grabs. Read on for more…

Craig David Bristol Sounds

Back in March, in an announcement which was to make the prospect of summer appear all the more tantalising, Bristol Sounds announced its four concerts which would take place in the Lloyds Amphitheatre across four consecutive evenings in late June.

 

Appearing are Bonobo, Craig David, Manic Street Preachers and the Hacienda Classical on the 21st, 22nd, 23rd and 24th respectively, a quartet of quality live music shows.

 

And we are proud to announce that we will be a part of this year’s proceedings, as we can now reveal that 365Bristol.com are an official media partner of Bristol Sounds!

 

As such, we have come in to some discounted tickets for the final three shows (Craig David, Manic Street Preachers and Hacienda Classical), costing £20 for a normal ticket or £50 for a VIP ticket. These will be available via collection or postage.

 

Manic Street Preachers Bristol Sounds

Once Bonobo has opened proceedings, On Thursday, Welsh giants Manic Street Preachers (above) will take to the helm, back on the scene after their triumphant tour around the country’s arenas last year. Support for this gig will be ably provided by British Sea Power and Welsh multi-instrumentalist The Anchoress.

 

 Craig David all over your Amphitheatre… The inexplicable second-wind of the resurgent garage giant took everybody by surprise, but was consolidated by the release of 16 last year which impressed for more than just its nostalgic novelty. A man for all-time, catch him on the Friday night - you can chill on Sunday.

 

 Bringing the series to a reluctant close on Saturday 24th June will be the Haçienda Classical, an exciting project conceived by Graeme Park and Mike Pickering - two DJs who frequented the legendary Manchester nightclub. Working closely with Joy Division bassist Peter Hook (who co-owned the Haçienda), they have reimagined a number of classic Haçi anthems as orchestral arrangements that will be played by the Manchester Camerata Orchestra.
