Blossoms at Sounds of the City, Castlefield Bowl - stage times, support and how to get there

It was only a couple of weekends ago that Blossoms joined Rick Astley on the Woodsies stages at Glastonbury for a secret set covering The Smiths' back catalogue. This Thursday, the Stockport lads will be back in Manchester as part of Sounds of the City.

Taking place at Castlefield Bowl, the open-air gig will see thousands of music fans brave the potential rain, for a much- anticipated homecoming gig. It comes off the back off Blossoms celebrated, 23-date tour last year, following the release of their Number one album, Ribbon Around The Bomb.

Their tour included four dates at Manchester's 02 Apollo in last year - with two dates added due to such high demand. The band also made a surprise performance at Night & Day, with Manc music icon Clint Boon welcoming them to the stage and describing them as "one of the greatest bands to come out of the North of England".
