Description

Seven piece band reproducing old school sounds of the Caribbean, ska, reggae, soul and jazz, with rockin back line and sweet horns. What's not to love?!

The Castaways Led by trombonist Mel Howard (formerly Freedom Masses & Creation Roots amongst many others), The Castaways brings you Ska, Rocksteady and a touch of Reggae fused with more than a little Jazz.

If you love the music of the Studio One days from the likes of the Skatalites, Don Drummond, Desmond Dekker, Toots and the Maytals and many more, you’ll love The Castaways!

Description

Matt & Phred's is a long established live music venue, situated in Manchester's trendy Northern Quarter. Over the years the likes of Sneaky, Kit Downes, Marius Neset, Manu Delago, the Dagda Quartet, Jamie Cullum and even Adele have graced the stage in our little neighbourhood joint.

Most notably known for showcasing the best in local and international Jazz, Matt & Phred's offers much, much more. We still have live music gigs 6 nights a week, encompassing the likes of Jazz, Folk, Gypsy, Electro, Salsa, Swing, World and even a little bit of Ska.

As well as being able to see some amazingly talented musicians, our bar and kitchen team are also at the top of their game. If you enjoy cocktails then this is the place to be. We also have a cracking wine list with featured wines of the month and of course anyone who has ever been to the club knows just how good the pizzas are and at weekends we have added specials to tantalise your taste buds!

The [diary page](http://www.mattandphreds.com/diary) lists all of the upcoming events so it's easy to see what is going on. The gigs are free Monday to Thursday and there is a teeny tiny £5 door charge on Friday and Saturday nights. We highly recommend you book a table for weekend nights as we do get busy and there's no better way to enjoy the bands whilst being waited on by our fabulous bar team.
