Cowgate Block Party
at Sneaky Pete’s and The Mash House
Cowgate Block Party is back on Saturday 24th October and the fourth edition has the most ambitious lineup we’ve put together. Fifteen acts will take over Sneaky Pete’s and The Mash House for a full day of discovery: Belfast electronic force Mount Palomar brings the Berghain-tested, BBC 6Music-approved live show that’s been making rooms shake across the UK all year; South Wales newcomers Morn, a Great Escape highlight and one of the most thrilling new bands in the country, Dutch indie noir five-piece The Klittens arrive fresh off their debut album; London garage-rock outfit Modern Guilt, championed by Steve Lamacq and John Kennedy, bring the swagger; and Body Horror, who had to pull out of July at the last minute, are back where they belong. Plus ten more acts across the day.
