Inspiral Carpets

In the late eighties, the Inspiral Carpets were a key part of changing the musical landscape in the UK. Along with the Stone Roses and the Happy Mondays, they were the cornerstones in a new indie psychedelia that played out in many different ways. 

A vital component of the infamous ‘Madchester’ movement, Inspiral Carpets formed in Oldham in 1980. Known for hit singles such as ‘This Is How It Feels’, ‘Saturn 5’ and ‘She Comes in the Fall’, they remain much-loved not only in Manchester but across the UK.

With their much loved back catalogue and new songs ready to go, 2025 will see the Inspiral carpets in rude health as their guitarist explains, ‘We are looking at another year of Greatest Hits shows but with new material on the way. The last two years has reminded me what our songs mean to people and we love playing those songs and can’t wait to play the odd new tune as well.’
