Manchester new wave outfit Midnight Gallery came to life in 2020 amidst the hush of the pandemic, developing their sound at the forefront of modernising post-punk, with a shared enthusiasm for 80s musical influences and the distinctive sounds of the North. Drawing parallels with artists such as Joy Division, Echo and the Bunnymen and Interpol Midnight Gallery's music fizzes with sharp guitars, brooding synths, and evocative lyrics exploring the emotional turmoil and complexities of modern life. With a captivating debut EP and an increasing buzz around live shows, including a sold-out hometown show and a UK tour with IST IST, Midnight Gallery is quickly making its mark in the UK post-punk scene.

Initially formed with the aim of creating low-lit, melodic indie folk before unexpected, corruptive forces led them down a path of borderless expression and poised, purposeful chaos, Holly Head is made up of Joe (vocals, guitar) Liam (bass), Oscar (drums) and Paddy (guitar). Combining political activism, unrelenting basslines and cut glass guitar riffs the four-piece transmit the crucial sounds of a raging, wide-awake, no more bullsh*t society with their rapid-fire, funk-infused new-wave punk.
"Holly Head's music charges forward with an uncompromising spirit creating an electrifying sonic assault that refuses to shy away from uncomfortable truths" The Daily Music Report
"A perfect synthesis of the mesmerising elastic bass lines of seventies afrobeat with the slash-and-burn angular ferocity of prime-time Fugazi…it’s a perfect dynamic of intensity and groove." - Louder Than War
"They create a unique raw blend of indie rock and post punk energy" - Northern Exposure
