This activity follows a busy summer when the legendary Manchester band have played the Festivals (the Isle of Wight, T in The Park) and other selected gigs, both here and abroad. Earlier this year, the Inspirals signed to Cherry Red Records and will finally unveil the band’s new album – which will be entitled simply Inspiral Carpets – which was recorded at Airtight Studios in Manchester. The album boasts the forthcoming single ‘Spitfire’ while Manchester Punk Poet John Cooper-Clarke has co-written and performed on the song ‘Let You Down’.
Craig Gill: “We have been busy gigging all summer at the likes of T In The Park and the Isle of Wight, bedding a couple of those new tracks into our classic live set. The band are really gelling, we’re enjoying the moment.”
Stephen Holt: “We’re really pleased to be playing a tour of this length which will take us around the country. We’re on good form, don’t miss out.
Cool As x.”
Graham Lambert: “We equally love doing the festivals and live club shows. We don’t tour all the time and this year has seen a brilliant run of shows so far, so this tour will round the year off nicely – don’t miss us.”
Martyn Walsh: “Really excited about playing back in doors, BRING IT ON!!”
Clint Boon: “In what is already looking like our biggest year since 1994, T In The Park and Isle Of Wight festivals, gigs in Spain, Italy and now we’re really looking forward to the UK tour in December. Happy days in Inspiral World xxx”
