music festival got cancelled after its first night because of a provocative statement and action by The 1975 frontman Matty Healy. The incident ended in an RM12.3 million lawsuit from festival organiser Future Sound Asia towards the band for breach of contract.
The band spoke about the fine a couple months later but not much is known about the effects the fine had on the quartet - until recently. Apparently, the RM12.3 million fine had hindered frontman Matty Healy from purchasing a Manchester flat unit. The report came from a Manchester-based publication, Manchester Mill, that the 35-year-old was interested in buying a flat .
Alex said the vocalist visited him in August 2023 with an interest in buying the property off his hands, even offering him £275,000 in cash for the flat. Alex noted that Matty seemed genuine about the purchase, even sending a letter of intent and had surveyed the property. Unfortunately, the deal failed because of the band’s RM12.3 million fine. Reportedly, Matty was advised not to spend money on property, meaning he could no longer purchase the flat.
Alex believed the singer wanted to help resolve the dispute between the music venue and the flat owner and help Night & Day continue its legacy in the Manchester music scene. While Matty’s purchase didn’t go through, it was recently announced that Night & Day was allowed to continue operations as long as the place adhered to the set of restrictions placed by the case’s judge.It seems Matty’s bold stunt at the Good Vibes Festival had an impact on not only the band but on others as well.
