The electric atmosphere.
The music.
Wow.
One of the best gigs I've been too.
Support Acts:
Cloud Control- Wasn't too keen at first although they grew on me as the set went on and by the end I rather liked their stuff.
Superhumanoids- Good friends of Local Natives, also from LA, it was their first show overseas. They weren't bad, unfortunately, the sound wasn't great for them but their music wasn't dissimilar from Local Natives.
Local Natives
As soon as they came onto the stage I knew it was going to be a good gig. It was my first time in Club Academy and we were so close to the band. They opened with Camera Talk which set the mood perfectly. They continued to play tracks from their debut and critically acclaimed album, Gorilla Manor. This resulted in a combination of softer songs with more upbeat lively ones, but with each song the audience was singing along. They closed there set with Sun Hands, which was just perfect. Everyone was singing along, hands in the air, dancing. Exceptional. It really cannot be beaten.
Manchester was their first stop of their UK tour and in my opinion it was one incredible opening night.
