Ventrelles

The Ventrelles, a Manchester-based four-piece band formed in 2018, bring together the influences of 80s guitar groups like Pale Fountains and Echo and the Bunnymen, along with shades of darkness reminiscent of The Chameleons and The Jesus and Mary Chain. Led by Phil Knox, their music is a vibrant blend of punchy delivery, sun-soaked guitars, energetic rhythms, soulful bass lines, and captivating vocals. Their sound is often described as a crescendo, creating a Mancunian sonic landscape enriched with poignant lyrics and proudly wearing its references on its sleeve. With reviews praising their wonderfully scenic and magnetically attractive shimmering guitar pop, the Ventrelles are making their mark on the music scene.
