The Hanging Stars are playing the Loose Takeover stage at The Long Road

Thursday, 6th August 2026

"Just A Day" just came out, and what better way to celebrate it than The Hanging Stars playing the Loose Takeover stage at The Long Road!

Hailed by Shindig! as "an album for the ages", Just A Day is the band's third album recorded at Clashnarrow — owned and run by Edwyn Collins and Grace Maxwell. Their sound draws on The Byrds, Big Star, The Feelies, Teenage Fanclub and Tom Petty. Or think Lou Reed and the Velvets jamming with Gorkys Zygotic Mynci. The result is an album that feels simultaneously classic and vibrant, their influences worn lightly giving the songs room to breathe. They will be playing songs from "Just A Day" and all their records to date so join us at The Long Road and be sure to catch them.

Stage times announced next week.
