Narcissus & Sarah Angel

Listen Up proudly present Narcissus supported by Sarah Angel at 33 Oldham Street, Manchester on Saturday 10th December 2022. 

NARCISSUS

With an output that has been described as both epic and anthemic, narcissus were the first band signed to Manchester label, 42’s Records and the release of ‘burning candles’ in 2019. They have since compiled the charity compilation album ‘MANC MADE///ACTS OF HOPE’ for which they contributed the track ‘Our City’ featuring the extraordinary talent of Manchester street poet Dave Viney. Bring on ‘lost causes’ on 42’s Records. A slab of dark electronica co produced by Donald ‘Dojo’ Johnson of Manchester music legends A Certain Ratio with a remix from UNE (Mark Radcliffe & Paul Langley) celebrating a late 80s Hacienda vibe. Following the successful ‘Cuttin Thru Red Tape’ which was heavily featured by John Kennedy (Radio X) came the single ‘Friends In High Places’. A modern slice of big sounding beats and strings featuring the sublime vocals of songstress Becki Fishwick. Narcissus' debut album 'A Sense Of Place' was released on 28th October to critical acclaim 

SARAH ANGEL 

Bolton born soul-child, singer songwriter and model Sarah Angel has been flaunting her experimental-soul sound over the past year in her hometown and beyond ; Still a newcomer on the scene but moving fiercely, her first single nostalgia funk-drenched ‘Phonecall’ produced by Kardanski (Kid British) was featured in Foot-asylums Winter Fashion Campaign - with follow up single ‘YOU’ paired with a glossy, stylish and Sarah-styled video, featured on publications universally including Gritty Magazine & Music Crowns.
Delving from RnB, soul to alternative house-funk, Miss Angel sound persisted through constant single releases and gained interview spots on NTS Radio, Unity, BBC Introducing and North Manchester FM - as well as developing her live show playing gigs at ILUVLIVE, Manchester Carnival and Birdcage.
Continuing her creative portfolio, Sarah Angel is currently working on new music in the studio whilst channeling her influences and constantly perfecting her craft - with her inspirations ranging from the likes of Jill Scott, Prince and David Bowie to Ru Paul and Erykah Badu - ‘I want to create alternate universes with both my fashion and music in which people can delve into and loose themselves’

Listen Up Djs will also be playing throughout the night before and between bands.
