Andy Martin Death Notice: Landlord Of Mancunian Institution The Star And Garter Has Tragically Died From Stroke

Andy Martin Death Cause – Tragically, Andy Martin, the landlord of the Star and Garter, has passed away while suffering from what is believed to be a stroke. Previous to the deterioration of his condition, it was reported that the father of two, who was 52 years old, was suffering from an ear infection. After a stay in the hospital for four days, he later passed away. Andy was a well-liked figure at the Star and Garter, and he fought with all his might to ensure that the well-liked boozer remained open in spite of the formidable opposition from Network Rail. The influential club nights that he helped start provided a fantastic forum for the development of grassroots talent, and he was instrumental in the introduction of a number of bands, artists, and DJs at the bar.

In the year 2003, Andy seized control of the well-known tavern located on Fairfield Street and transformed it into a thriving venue for live music performances. I hope that it continues to be an important component of Manchester’s musical landscape for a very long time.

Under its former name, The Star and Garter Tavern was established in 1803, and its current location is around fifty yards distant from where it was originally located. On the other hand, the establishment was shut down in 1849 as a result of the expansion of the London Road railway station, which was subsequently renamed Manchester Piccadilly.

When it reopened as the Star & Garter Hotel in 1877, the bar had been disassembled and painstakingly reassembled at its current location. This procedure was completed in 1877. The tavern, which had been serving customers for more than a century, was confronted with uncertainty for the very first time (though it was not the last time), as a result of the closure of the Mayfield railway station.

Chester’s Brewery, which was the company that owned it at the time, made the decision to put it up for sale. Beginning in 1991 and continuing for almost 28 years, Charlie Darlington was the proprietor of the establishment all the way through its existence.

For the duration of this time period, it served as a venue for musical performances, which was motivated by the anticipation of upcoming urban revitalization measures by the city council.

Acts such as Status Quo, The Courteeners, Dougie Poynter, Half Man Half Biscuit, Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes, UK Subs, Subhumans, Bring Me the Horizon, Al Perkins, Corrosion of Conformity, Chuck Mosley, and Arnocorps have performed on its stage over the course of its history. Among the many bands that have performed there are many who are considered to be among the most iconic in the world.
