Ethel Cain live at Manchester Apollo

Ethel Cain played the last of two Manchester shows on October 3rd.

Ethel Cain is out on a UK and European tour this month in support of the recently released album Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You.

It was given a 4* review from Live4ever – summed up as, ‘a reprieve to the darkness that follows with Preacher’s Daughter’:

The opening track Janie provides perspective from Ethel’s best friend; Janie realises that Ethel has a new connection with Willoughby that she can’t provide and recounts the heartbreak of losing a friend: “I know she’s your girl now, but she was my girl first.

“It’s an unexpected place to start the album, however it helps to introduce the concept of Willoughby as a character.”

“It’s followed with the first of three instrumentals, Willoughby’s Theme, a slow piano-led track which wouldn’t feel out of place on the Twin Peaks soundtrack.”
