Review: Kurt Vile and the Manchester Pscyh Fest

The biggest psychedelic festival in the UK returned to Manchester yesterday, Saturday September 3. This year, it was bigger than ever. The festival took over venues all along the Oxford Road corridor and hosted a hub at Circle Square.

The hub, supposedly hosting ‘food from all around the world’ offered two stalls, one selling Indian food and the other: burgers, meanwhile a bar stall boasted cans of craft beers or water. Other stalls sold vintage clothes, offered screen printing workshops and sold festival merch, including bucket hats and tie dye tea towels.

The opening act of the day, at the O2 Ritz was a great success. Gruff Rhys thoroughly impressed the crowd with skilled instrumentals, absolutely packing out the Whitworth Street West venue.
