Politically aware, funky, laid-back then vitriolic, Skinny Pelembe has a lot to say and delivers it with a fantastic band that swerves from dream-pop groove to springy agile guitar-funk. Since his show we hosted at Paradise Palms last year, he’s released a full length debut on Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood imprint, played a speight of festivals including the 6Music Festival and We Out Here, and featured on the infamous COLORS sessions.

October 21st, 2019
Koselig returns to Sneaky Pete’s for another Monday night of music. After our previous blowout with Manchester’s own Hidden Spheres, we’re coming this time armed with a strong tri-card hand of local DJ’s ready to shuffle.

Having had long run-ins with The Mash House and The Bongo Club, performing with the likes of Skillis, Palidrone DJ’s and welcoming Volruptus for a special 1st birthday live performance, it’s safe to say control of the dance floor is in very capable hands.
Carouse – Main man VIGILE has been making serious waves in the city having championed big name talents such as Chrissy, Demuja and DJ Haus / Unknown To The Unknown across the Cowgate clubs. Expect the waves to keep coming on hard for his Sneaky’s debut on Monday 21st of October.
