The Intro Manchester massiv brought the stunning sounds of @ellenbethabdi to Maida Vale and our ears were pretty blow away tbh 💙 here’s a lil snippet of what went down x

Anna McLuckie is a Scottish singer, songwriter and Clàrsach player. Raised on classical and traditional music, Anna's writing draws on her musical beginnings and also takes influence from her love of popular music and more experimental sounds. 🎶 Her music sits in a world of contemporary folklore; her songs layered with interweaving harmonies, story-led lyricism and free-form structures. Based in London, she has performed in places around the world, from Rockwood Music Hall NYC to a concert series in Russia to house shows and folk sessions 👏. She's appeared at festivals across the UK and supported the likes of Jake Xerxes Fussell, Rozi Plain and Richard Hawley. 🤩 Special guest is Ellen Beth Abdi. 🫶 Mancunian music-maker Ellen Beth Abdi crafts wonky, soul-infused pop with live loops, pokey drums and quietly subversive lyrics. A rising force in Manchester's scene, she's supported The Stone Roses, performed with New Order and A Certain Ratio, and shared stages with Olivia Dean, Hollie Cook and Angélique Kidjo. Her debut album dropped in May 2025 via her own label, Sweet Twenty-Three Records. Come celebrate the release of Anna's new album, 'The Little Winters' 🧣, at the Carlton Club next Sunday (24th). Doors at 7pm, tickets in our Linktree. 🔗🌳
