Your Mama's Cookin' is a rockbilly/jump blues event that focuses on that supposed era of innocence 1940-1959.

For the past three years it has tried to offer an alternative to Manchester's usual clubbing experience. A typical evening involves knitting lessons, lindyhop lessons, a cake baking competition, live music, and a very large dance party.

After having a lovely time at last year's festival they've been invited back for more of the same good old fashioned fun. As well as the finest, carefully selected, hot rocking groups and artists from around Europe, expect Rockabilly Bingo, cakes galore and many other little treats for your eyes, ears and belly.
