# Olly & Rhys EP Release at The Carlton Club Manchester
Head down to The Carlton Club on Deansgate this April for the Olly & Rhys EP release party, a free live music event that's perfect for discovering fresh local talent. This is your chance to catch two rising Manchester artists unveiling their new project in an intimate setting, with the kind of buzz that usually precedes bigger things in the city's independent music scene. Whether you're a keen supporter of homegrown acts or just after a solid night out without breaking the bank, this Wednesday 22 April gig delivers exactly that.
The Carlton Club sits right in the heart of Deansgate, one of Manchester's most vibrant entertainment districts packed with independent venues, bars, and restaurants. This historic spot has hosted countless local artists over the years and remains a favourite haunt for music fans who appreciate authentic, no-frills nights. The intimate atmosphere here means you'll get genuinely close to the artists rather than watching from the back of a cavernous space.
Getting there's easy—Deansgate-Castlefield tram stop is minutes away, and there's decent parking nearby if you're driving in. Doors open at 7pm, so arrive early to grab a drink and secure a decent spot. The free entry makes this a brilliant low-risk way to support Manchester's emerging music talent while soaking up the city's independent spirit.
