For fans of: Editors, Courteeners, Joy Division
MANCHESTER indie rockers Darktown Jubilee are returning to play a hometown show with songs from their new album, City of Light.
The record is the follow up to the quartet's 2013 debut, The World, The Flesh and The Devil.
Darktown Jubilee's album launch and gig will be at The Deaf Institute on Saturday July 11.
