VOILÀ

VOILÀ bring their alt‑pop edge to Manchester Academy on 24 November 2026. The Los Angeles–based duo pairs the British voice of Gus Ross with the California‑shaped production of Dylan Jagger Lee, crafting songs that sit between indie pop, pop rock and subtle electronic textures. Their writing leans first‑person and unvarnished, circling love stories, vulnerability and the small tensions of the everyday.

On stage, VOILÀ play contrasts: intimate verses that draw you in, choruses that open up without losing their grip, guitars wrapped in synth layers, and a pulse that shifts from slow‑burn ballads to more driven tracks. Emerging in the late 2010s with a run of singles, they’ve refined a sound that balances accessible hooks and darker undertones, keeping the mood melodic but never glossy.

Expect a set that sketches the duo’s trajectory so far, from early cuts to newer releases, with the Ross/Lee chemistry front and center. Clear vocals, clean production choices and a taste for dynamic builds: VOILÀ aim straight for the gut while keeping the arrangements lean. Manchester gets the full spectrum of their pop‑rock palette, in a show built for feeling as much as for sing‑along release.
