About Pintglass
Pintglass, a name whispered with a mix of reverence and intrigue across the underground music circuit, emerged from the gritty, experimental fringes of Manchester’s music scene in the late 2010s. Comprising the powerhouse vocals of Elara Vance, the intricate guitar work of Rhys Kincaid, the thundering basslines of Liam ‘The Hammer’ Davies, and the relentless rhythmic drive of drummer Chloe ‘Sticks’ Miller, this quartet has carved out a unique niche that bravely explores the spaces between traditional genres. Their sound is an intoxicating cocktail of post-punk aggression, electronic textures, and unexpected folk-tinged melodies, all delivered with an undeniable punk rock urgency.
Their early EPs, “Cracked Pavement” and “Urban Echoes,” quickly garnered critical acclaim for their innovative sound and poetic, often politically charged, lyrics. Tracks like “Concrete Bloom” and “Ghost of the Docks” became instant cult favourites, showcasing their ability to craft anthems that resonate with both intellectual depth and visceral power. Pintglass refuse to be pigeonholed, consistently pushing artistic boundaries with each release. Their live performances are legendary, known for their explosive energy and Elara’s captivating stage presence, which transforms every show into a communal, almost ritualistic, experience. Currently touring in support of their highly anticipated third album, “The Alchemist’s Brew,” Pintglass are at the peak of their creative powers, ready to unleash their latest sonic experiments on the unsuspecting masses.

What to Expect at the Show
Prepare for an auditory assault and an unforgettable spectacle when Pintglass takes the Joiners stage. Given their reputation for high-octane performances, expect a setlist that masterfully blends fan favourites with fresh material from “The Alchemist’s Brew.” Anticipate the driving rhythms of “Concrete Bloom” to ignite the mosh pit, alongside the atmospheric depth of new tracks like “Whispers from the Weir” and the anthemic “Chain Reaction.” This band thrives on dynamic shifts, so be ready for moments of intense, cathartic release balanced with more introspective, haunting passages.
