Manchester Bands

I live about 12 miles outside of Manchester UK. These are some of the bands to have generated from my neck of the woods.

I don't know if Elbow have made it in the US yet - but take the time to listen e.g.

Ian Brown worth a watch

I have always enjoyed The Fall

You can hear his accent (same as mine) on this - Stephen Fretwell

I have James on my iPod in the gym when I feel good

and The Smiths when its a bit of a grueler.
