Manchester Psych Fest announces 2nd wave of acts for 2025 edition

Manchester Psych Fest, the city-centre celebration of trippy and psychedelic sonic sensibilities, has just unveiled the next batch of names for its 2025 edition. Joining an already stellar lineup that includes experimental fusion group Goat, post-punk up-and-comers Deadletter, genre explorer George Clanton, Anna Erhard, Honeyglaze, PINS and a number of other kaleidoscopic noise-makers to entice the auditory senses. 

The new wave of announcements sees crooning post-punk queen Nadine Shah join Goat at the top of the bill, with 60s psych icons Gong, energetic and experimental three-piece W.H. Lung, sonically suave indie outfit Do Nothing, and others including Du Blonde, Chazzy Belt, Tropical Fuck Storm, and many more.
