Manic Street Preachers & Suede

A double bill of two British alternative rock bands, Manic Street Preachers and Suede, at OVO Hydro in Glasgow. Both acts are signed to Columbia Records.

Manic Street Preachers are a British alternative rock band formed in 1986 in Blackwood. The group is signed to Columbia Records, and its first album, Generation Terrorists, appeared in 1992.

Suede is a British rock band from London, playing alternative rock, formed in 1989. Also signed to Columbia Records, the group released its first album, Movin', in 1993. The two bands therefore issued their debut records within a year of each other, both through the same label.

This double bill brings the two acts together at OVO Hydro, a Glasgow venue that hosts concerts and shows. The evening will appeal to listeners who follow British alternative rock and the guitar-led bands that emerged in the 1990s.
