Supergrass

Supergrass is a British band whose rock music draws on Britpop and alternative rock. This concert brings the group to Manchester Academy, a venue in the city that hosts concerts and shows.

Supergrass is a British band playing independent rock, Britpop and alternative rock. The group was formed in Wheatley in 1993 and released its debut album, I Should Coco, in 1995 on EMI. That year's single "Alright", taken from the album, is among the band's best-remembered songs, and the record sits at the centre of their Britpop-era output.

Gaz Coombes is a founding member of the band and has been its principal singer and songwriter. The group's sound combines melodic guitar pop with the rawer energy of alternative rock, a blend that set it apart from many of its contemporaries in the mid-1990s.

Manchester Academy is a venue in the city that hosts concerts and shows. This evening is a concert by Supergrass on their visit to Manchester, offering a chance to hear the band's catalogue performed live in the city.
