Live gig by The Rolling People with support from Florentenes at The Ferret, a 14+ night.
The Rolling People are playing The Ferret on Thursday 5 November, with Florentenes opening the night. It's a double bill that brings together two Northern bands from different ends of the indie spectrum.
The Rolling People have spent the last few years building a name for themselves on the live circuit. Northern Exposure Magazine called them 'Manchester's next greatest success', and they've backed that up with a heavy touring schedule. In 2026 they headlined Manchester's O2 Ritz and New Century Hall, and played festivals including The Great Escape, Tramlines and Reading & Leeds, with support from BBC Radio 6 and Radio X. If you've seen them before, you'll know they're a live band first and foremost.
Opening for them are Florentenes, a Northern teenage quartet. Their sound has shifted from indie rock into a heavier alternative style, one they describe as infused with punk attitude and grunge elements. They're known for high-energy, audience-engaging live sets, so they should fit right in with the Rolling People's approach to the stage.
