At both MIF21 and MIF23 Bothy has contributed to the curation of the festival square stage at Manchester International Festival. It means we’ve been able to give classical musicians who are starting new groups and trying to get things off the ground a brilliant platform to gig what they’ve been working on. Previous groups we’ve curated for the line up include Hafren, Couch Opera, Mabon Jones and ourselves as Bothy doing classical and ambient DJ.
