Three-hour goth rock show by The Sisters of Murphy, a UK tribute band to the Sisters of Mercy, at The Continental.
The Sisters of Murphy play The Continental on Saturday 13 February, with Taser Puppets opening the night. It's a goth rock tribute to the Sisters of Mercy, and they've been at it for a while — they formed in 1997 and are based in Huddersfield. Their loyal fans call them 'The Smurphs', and they bill themselves as 'the nation's favourite SISTERS OF MERCY tribute'.
If you're not familiar with the original band, the Sisters of Mercy are one of the big names of the goth scene, and that's exactly what this set is built around. The Sisters of Murphy focus on their sound, and they've spent nearly three decades doing it. They're widely regarded as the leading tribute act dedicated to the music, so you can expect a night that stays close to the source. Taser Puppets take the stage first, and the main act follows.
It's a long one, too: the show runs for three hours at The Continental, which sits on South Meadow Lane. That's a fair bit more than your average gig, so it's a proper night out rather than a quick set. The Continental is at South Meadow Lane, Preston, PR1 8JP.
