South Arcade, Manchester Academy 3, 13/03/25

The first of their "North vs South" duo of shows, last Thursday saw alt rockers "North" Arcade storm the stage of Manchester Academy 3 for one of the most electric performances of the year so far. With foam fingers in hand, the northern crowd cheered, sung, and moshed to every track on the setlist, hopeful that they've proved to the band that their northern fans are more dedicated and go harder than their southern counterparts.

Of course they couldn't be alone for such an iconic couple of shows, so South Arcade were joined by Leap and Hannah Grae to round out two nights of fierce north vs south action. Here's Josh's coverage of the event:
