Our intrepid team of talented Blue buskers are back this weekend and will be performing outside the stadium before the Fulham game on Sunday.
Here’s some info on who is playing –
Mathew Hibbert
Mathew is a South Manchester-based singer/songwriter (and big City fan) who lists Bob Dylan, The Doors and Neil Young as influences. He’s busked as far and wide as Australia and Germany and was featured on local TV singing ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ by Oasis on the streets of Frankfurt during the last World Cup.

Mark Heywood
Mark Heywood (or Mark and the Magic as he’s sometimes known) is an extremely talented Manchester-based multi-instrumentalist who really impressed us all with his songwriting skills at the audition.
Steve O’Donoghue
Making his Busking for City debut this Sunday is Steve O’Donoghue who recently put out his first album (which has gone down a treat in the MCFC offices). Steve specialises is melodic, acoustic-driven indie and is well worth a listen this Sunday.

Alan Bates
We’re delighted and very excited to announce the debut performance of Alan Bates this weekend who blew us away at the auditions with his ukulele version of Oasis’ ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’. I’m sure Alan has a few more surprises up his sleeve this weekend!
Get down to the match early and give the guys your support!
