The GiG : GDANSK81
GiG date : 27/09/24
Gdansk81 are a six piece original post punk/indie band from Manchester & Liverpool. Two members of the band live and work in Rochdale. The sound will evoke memories of the early Eighties: political rallies in shipyards, Lech Walesa and maybe the mournful World in Action theme winding down in the background. At the same time, the music of post punk movement seemed to chime along with this febrile moment with its awkward rhythms, claustrophobic sounds and overtly political postures.
Taking in such heady influences as The Wedding Present, Prolapse, The B-52s, The Fall and Wire, Gdansk81 process all of these sounds to concoct a healthy dose of spiky neo-post punk.
Some of the band highlights to date include one of our tracks from our latest EP (Star of The Sea) being voted for by the public then featured on BBC Radio 6 - Tom Robinson's Introducing show.
We have just supported the Chameleons on their recent UK tour and are set to join them again this year.
Also headlined a number of gigs at high profile venues across Manchester & Liverpool including Bank Top Tavern - Oldham, Golden Lion - Todmorden, Aatma - Manchester, Jimmy's - Liverpool, Philharmonic pub, Zanzibar to name a few.
