the sound of two cities
20 May to 18 July
A video project by Elliot Eastwick.
The cities of Manchester and Detroit have many musical similarities, from the Northern Soul movement of 70s which adopted the Soul sounds of Urban Detroit, to the DIY nature of the early Detroit garage rock bands who influenced Manchester's punk era, the techno influences of the city on Manchester¹s club scene, which is still evident today. Both cities are renowned for emotive raw music that echoes the cityscape.
Eastwick's video explores the influence this huge catalogue of Detroit performers and music producers has had on artists from Manchester.
Featured are interviews with Manchester legends including The Hollies, Graham Nash, Carl Craig, Johnny Marr, 808 State's Graham Massey, Anthony Wilson, The Doves and many more. Look through the 'hall of fame' to see musicians from both cities, Iggy pop, Alice Cooper, George Clinton, New Order, Stevie Wonder, Morrisey....the list goes on, the beat goes on....and on.
