The UK’s biggest indoor winter music festival kicks off 4 weeks from today on the 28th October and we are pleased to announce details for this year’s Liverpool Music Week 2011 free show agenda.
This year LMW HQ has delivered one of their most cutting edge line ups ever, which will the previously announced sold-out launch show with THE HORRORS and the incredible closing party headlined by GHOSTPOET with THE WHIP, THE PHANTOM BAND, GROSS MAGIC, OUTFIT, D/R/U/G/S, CEREBRAL BALLZY and more.
However this year the ever-present winter festival - that this week has also been nominated as Fans Best Festival in the UK Festival Awards - is proud to announce one of the most exciting free line-ups in the event’s 9 year history, with a selection of the UK’s freshest artists at the one of the city’s most lively young music hotspots - MOJO.
The free music agenda has always been the integral part of the festival’s blueprint, and due to the success of last year’s partnership MOJO once again has been chosen to host the bulk of the free festival between 28th Oct – 13th Nov. This year fans will also be able to get the chance to see exciting new acts such as TWIN SISTER, SUMMER CAMP, BIG DEAL, THE DUKE SPIRIT, THE YOUNG KNIVES, TRIBES, FOREIGN BEGGARS, BENJAMIN FRANCIS LEFTWICH, DELS, THREE TRAPPED TIGERS, MARCUS FOSTER, BAXTER DURY, with proceedings being wrapped up by festival favourites FRANKIE & THE HEARTSTRINGS. Another free show announced is the highly acclaimed LANTERNS ON THE LAKE at Leaf Café on Bold Street, with a further selection of special events still to be announced at The Kazimier, Static Gallery, Wolstenholme Creative Space and Mello Mello.
