The world has changed a lot since Warpaint last meandered over the pond from LA to deliver us their hearts and souls on The Fool in 2010. TVs are 3d, Justin Beiber is even more annoying and Kanye had a baby. Back now with their self-titled second record, Warpaint, whilst the world around them may have...
At Salford Quay’s Lowry Building, a history-rich selection of live theatre, specially-curated events and exclusive exhibitions, together accumulate into a thriving hub of interest for all ages.
