London’s thrilling experimental seven-piece, The Orchestra (For Now), arrive in Manchester this November for a night at YES that promises emotional peaks, orchestral bombast, and existential intensity.
Winners of Green Man Rising and fresh from sold-out headline shows, the band have carved out a unique space in the city’s maximalist underground—equal parts post-rock, jazz, and theatrical indie drama.
Their debut EP Plan 75 distills the neurotic tension of urban life into sprawling sonic chaos, complete with breakneck drumming, sweeping strings, and impassioned vocals. A must-see for fans of Black Country, New Road, Caroline, or anyone curious about what “London prog” really sounds like live.
