Rock band Man/Woman/Chainsaw play Float Along Festival in Sheffield's Corporation
Man/Woman/Chainsaw, who have been hotly tipped for stardom, will play in Sheffield during their UK headline tour.
The rock band will be unleashing their sound at Corporation on September 26 as part of the Float Along Festival in the city centre.
Signed to Fiction Records, home of The Cure, St Vincent, The Horrors and Billie Marten, the group launched their debut album Cannonball on August 7.
Five singles – Only Girl, Get Up and Dance, Nosedive, Goddamn, Lizard Man!. Something Else – were released ahead of the album.
Prior to signing to Fiction Records, Man/Woman/Chainsaw recorded Adam & Steve and Only Girl which came out on So Young Records in 2025. Both of these singles made the BBC 6 playlist.
In 2025 Man/Woman/Chainsaw was named as one of NME’s 100 Emerging Artists. Rolling Stone at SXSW, which is a Future of Music showcase, described the six-piece London outfit as: “a young band in the process of inventing something ecstatically new.”
Man/Woman/Chainsaw was formed nine years ago by friends Billy Ward and Vera Leppänen when they were 16. Apart from violionist Clio Starwood, the members all went to school together.
The one-day Float Along Festival will take place in Sidney & Matilda, The Octagon and Corporation. The line-up includes White Lies, Sprints, Warmduscher, Opus Kink, TTSFU, Grandmas House, Nuha Ruby Ra and Gia Ford.
