Inspiral Carpets

Inspiral Carpets, the acclaimed British alternative rock band, have been a vital force in the UK’s indie pop and britpop scenes since their formation in 1989. With a distinctive sound that fuses jangling guitars, swirling organ melodies, and evocative lyrics, the group has secured their place among the most influential acts to emerge from the Manchester music landscape. Their impressive catalogue includes albums such as "Cool As," "Beast Inside," and "Dung 4," alongside fan favourites like "96 Tears" and "This Is How It Feels."

In March 2023, Inspiral Carpets released "The Complete Singles," a comprehensive compilation album that celebrates their enduring legacy and showcases the band’s most memorable tracks. This release serves as a testament to their continued relevance in the world of British alternative music, offering both longtime followers and new listeners a chance to dive deep into their celebrated discography.

The band’s live music performances remain eagerly anticipated, with a notable headline gig at Manchester’s Albert Hall in December 2025, where Inspiral Carpets were joined by DJ Dave Sweetmore in support. Their concerts consistently deliver the energy and connection that have defined their reputation.
