Hit & Run presents Pete & Bas @ 256 Wilmslow Road
Saturday 2nd March
Pete & Bas are a couple of 70-year-old rappers, who first surfaced on YouTube a little over a year ago with their music video ‘Shut Ya Mouth’ and instantly went viral. Since then they’ve been giving the grime scene a run for its money with a string of absolute bangers. Catch Pete & Bas this Saturday at 256 Fallowfield. Shouts to Hit & Run for this one, I expect this one will have no trouble selling out.
