TIA LIVE

TIA LIVE is one of the newer additions to Hindley Street, a live music venue at number 128 holding 456 people. It runs through Divine Birds, keeps a full bar and a complimentary coat check, and all shows are eighteen plus with valid ID required at the door. The programming is deliberately broad. Metal and hardcore share the calendar with all ages free entry afternoons, hard dance nights and touring live acts, which makes it a rarer thing in the West End: a room built for bands that works just as well for a sound system. Techno promoters have taken to it for exactly that reason. Dance Floor Heretics, Simply Techno and Front Room combined here to bring CJ Bolland and Thomas Schumacher over for a marathon of pounding techno, with S4T, BOF, Solace and Floating Castle supporting. In September, Front Room return with Oliver Huntemann for a late night set on full Funktion-One.
