On spring Bank Holiday Weekend

24 – 26 May Bradford Threadfest returns for

a second year of independent live music

celebration. After a successful and vibrant

debut, Threadfest 2013 sees even more venues,

collectives, musicians, bands and promoters join

forces to offer a free taste of the city’s DIY and

grassroots musical activity.

Bradford has a rich history of self-organised

cultural activity, reflected in venues like the

1 in 12 Club, the heyday of the people-led

Bradford Festival and Mela, and many commu-

nity-focused arts and music initiatives. Likewise

it has more than its fair share of unique spaces

that regularly host local and international acts

attracted to the alternative character of the city.

Threadfest aims to pull this activity together

into a weekend that connects and showcases

the various scenes and communities.

There is no specified path or correct order of

things, no headliners and support acts, just mu-

sic that you hopefully haven’t come across all at

once. Come along and help join the dots.

With Live Music and Events from:

Hawk Eyes, Shopping, The Hobbes Fanclub,

mini-mekons, Random Hand, The Horn The Hunt,

Yo El Rey, Koala, Monster Killed by Laser, Ruby

Tombs, Kogumaza, Dean McPhee, Blacklisters,

The Horse Loom, Jer Reid and Stevie Jones, Mick

Flower and Neil Campbell, Rivals, Mother Earth,

Oriental Arts, No Hands, NGOD, Cut Yourself in Half,

M@BU, Birchall/Cheetham Duo, Serious Sam Barrett,

DIY or Die, Blood Sport, Bare Plume, Voltage Studios,

Idiot Box, What The Folk?, Cafe Despard, Cameron

Deas, Rockers and Rollers, Illusory Centre, Alchemy/

Schmalchemy and more.

At venues including:

The New Bradford Playhouse, Delius Arts and Cultural

Centre, The 1 in 12 Club, The Sparrow, Malik House,

The Beehive Inn, The Black Swan, and more.

Bradford Threadfest is a joint effort by a collective of individuals, groups and organisations with support from University of Bradford and Bradford City Council.
