We’re delighted to be working with Mark Mulcahy’s Miracle Legion!

Miracle-Legion-Deaf-Institute-Manchester

While singer-songwriter Mark Mulcahy would go on to make a name all of his own, his career actually started with Miracle Legion; one of the original ‘college rock’ bands who formed in 1983 and became something of a cult hit following acclaim from the likes of NME and Melody Maker, and the release of their debut album on Rough Trade Records.

Almost two decades since their last full-length release Portrait of A Damaged Family, the band back together on UK shores this summer.

Support comes from The Awful Truth. Manchester’s finest purveyors of the modern folk song The Awful Truth play largely acoustic instruments (upright bass, cajon, flute, harp, violin, Spanish guitar) and sing songs about sex, politics, drink and reptiles. They released their first album, Songs of Love and Lust, in 2015.
