Echo & the Bunnymen

Eighties indie heroes whose majestic songwriting haunted a generation of bedsits and student pads. Re-formed in 1997, and still fronted by the inimitable Ian McCulloch, there's every cause to celebrate the Bunnymen's return. Their seminal albums 'Crocodiles', 'Heaven Up Here', 'Porcupine', 'Ocean Rain' & 'Echo & The Bunnymen' have all been a major influence for groups such as Coldplay, The Killers and The Flaming Lips whilst later albums 'Evergreen', 'What Are YouGoing To Do With Your Life?', ‘Siberia' & 'Meteorites' demonstrate what an amazing body of work the band have.

Embrace

West Yorkshire's Embrace are one of the most recognisable bands that came from the upturn of popularity of indie-rock at the turn of the millennium. From stadium classics like the top ten hits 'All You Good Good People' and 'Come Back To What You Know' to their three number one albums, sold out arena shows and over two million album sales.

Kula Shaker

During the Britpop-mania of the mid-90s, Kula Shaker surfaced with 'K', an album drenched in Hendrix-ish psych-rock and with the stylings of much Indian music that launched them straight into the top 40 with four hit singles. After touring in the UK and the US and releasing second album 'Peasants, Pigs & Astronauts', Kula Shaker split in late 1999. Having dabbled with projects as individuals in the years following, a reformation was announced in 2006 (with the exclusion of keyboardist Jay Darlington), then releasing the well received albums 'Strangefolk' in 2007 and 'Pilgrims Progress' in 2010. 2016 sees their 5th release 'Eclipse'.

Lightning Seeds

Lightning Seeds are the brainchild of writer, singer, guitarist and producer Ian Broudie. Ian originally emerged from the post punk Liverpool music scene of the late seventies playing in the band “Big in Japan” which in turn led to him producing several bands starting with Echo & The Bunnymen. In 1989 Ian as Lightning Seeds released debut album ‘Cloudcukooland’ featuring the hit single ‘Pure’. Second album ‘Sense’ followed before the release of the seminal album ‘Jollification’ in 1994 which has so far sold nearly 1 million copies. In 1996 the iconic single ‘3 Lions’ for the England football team topped the charts many times over. That same year ‘Dizzy Heights’ and 1999’s ‘Tilt’ were released to critical acclaim before Ian returned to his producer roots. Ian soon began to develop hit albums for the likes of The Coral, The Zutons and many more.
