Slew continues to emerge as one of the UK’s most compelling new voices. Fierce, uncompromising and always carving his own lane, his independent journey through London’s underground – from grime roots to contemporary rap, has shaped a sound that feels both grounded and forward-thinking. He released his new mixtape ‘WHO ELSE? (Deluxe)’ independently via his People Pleasers label in December following a breakout 2025 which concluded with a SOLD OUT live headline show at COLOURS and a PA at Joy Orbison’s fabric clubnight; where he appeared as surprise special guest w/ James Blake and Ben UFO.

Planning your Manchester night

Grass-roots gigs in Manchester are intimate by design: most rooms cap below 200, the band is on stage close to the floor, and the support acts often deserve as much attention as the headliner. Arrive within thirty minutes of doors to catch the openers and pick a sightline you're happy with.

What's a grass-roots gig?

A UK gig at an independent venue — typically capped under 600 capacity — by an artist who isn't on a major-label arena tour. In: pubs, basement bars, indie clubs, community halls, arts centres, and small folk / jazz / punk festivals. Out: arenas, stadiums, the O2 chain, Royal Albert Hall, Symphony Hall, the Barbican, premium dining-cabaret rooms (Jazz Cafe, KOKO, Boisdale), and mega-festival sites (Reading, Leeds, Glastonbury, BST Hyde Park). Major-artist 'World Tour' / 'Arena Tour' / 'Greatest Hits' shows are also excluded — this directory is for the early-career bands, local promoter nights and Tuesday-evening residencies the bigger aggregators tend to miss.

How was this listing sourced?

Listings are compiled from public APIs (Ticketmaster, Skiddle) and direct submissions by promoters, venues and artists. Each carries a verification badge — verified means we've confirmed it independently; unverified means we sourced it from a publicly published event. For UK grassroots-venue context see the Music Venue Trust, PRS for Music and Help Musicians UK.

Can I add my own gig to the directory?

Yes — promoters, venues and artists can submit a gig free, reviewed within 48 hours. You'll also find related GigXchange surfaces: the UK open mic directory, the city hub index, the genre directory, the booking guides, and the GX Index for live UK gig rates.
