OLDHAM will be well represented at a packed Band on the Wall on June 26.

The Manchester venue hosts headliners the Gramotones, with highly-rated rock ‘n’ rollers Louie Louie in suport. The Manchester-based four piece is made up of Portuguese siblings Rita and Pedro Faria, fellow student Tom Pallett and drummer Paul Limer from Moorside. Limer was formerly the sticks man with local indie outfit Porter’s Forces.

A link to purchase tickets for what promises to be a great show is on either band’s Facebook page.



AS they revealed to the Chronicle recently, Oldham favourites 5ft Fez are set to feature on another of Drew Stansall’s hugely popular ‘Quadrophenia Nights’, and this time Matt, Joe and Ross have secured a mega date at an impressive venue - the O2 Academy in Liverpool on November 21.

TEENAGE Oldham rockers the Recreation are gearing up for a couple of eagerly-anticipated gigs.

The boys will be belting out a set of their raw indie tunes at the Oldham Carnival in Alexandra Park on June 14, before Manchester beckons on June 20, with a booking at the Eagle.
