The Man From Delmonte

A Christmas concert by The Man From Delmonte, the Manchester indie band who were popular in the 1980s and 1990s and have returned to Band On The Wall. The night centres on pop songs from their back catalogue and on recent albums.

The Man From Delmonte are a Manchester indie band who were popular in the 1980s and 1990s and came back together for reunion gigs. Mike West, Sheila Seal, Howard Goody and Martin Vincent have played sold-out shows across the UK and Europe since then, and have released two albums, Better Things and Big Noise '25.

This Christmas show is built around pop numbers the audience can sing along to, including Like a Millionaire, Water in My Eyes, My Love is Like a Gift and Believe Me. The band present it as a way to close what they describe as their busiest year so far, with the performance aimed at the crowd as much as the stage.

Band On The Wall is a concert and performance venue in Manchester's Northern Quarter. The evening suits listeners who know the band's 1980s and 1990s songs, as well as anyone looking for a seasonal singalong with a band that has recently been writing new material.
