Puressence are often described as the missing link between Joy Division, The Stone Roses and The Doves; Puressence‚Äö?Ñ????ë?¬•s music has always distilled Manchester's past. With such a melting pot of excellent influences, it‚Äö?Ñ????ë?¬•s difficult to understand why the band enjoy cult status rather than worldwide stardom. Their music is passionate, shimmering and reverential and is driven by the angelic voice of James Mudriczki ‚Äö?Ñ????ë?¬® one of the greatest front men Manchester has ever seen. The band are currently working on their fourth album. Those lucky enough to get tickets to this show will be treated to some stunning new material. 'They have all the ingredients - dollops of agony and ecstasy, choruses the size of their hometown and songs that aim for a deep emotional connection' - The Guardian
