The 66

The 66 echo the great epic sounds of Madchester. Playing their first show in November 2007 the band immediately stood-out amongst the seemingly endless copycat outfits, becoming one of the most exciting and talked about bands in recent years. "Descending the stairs into a compact, leery pit of expectation, the first hometown gig from the rugged rock/garage/indie Warrington troupe The 66, is reminiscent to an event at The Roadhouse in Manchester several years back. Back then it was some rising southern misfits who went by the name of The Libertines causing the air of anticipation.
