Manchester´s Victoria Warehouse, home to the infamous Warehouse Project, has announced a rare and special event this December 22nd as the city´s most iconic band, The Happy Mondays take to the stage.
Once in a lifetime a city embodies a whole cultural movement and it´s hard to envision Manchester´s late 80s and early 90s scene without thinking of The Happy Mondays.
The six-piece band fronted by the mischievous Shaun Ryder found the limelight right from their debut album, produced by The Velvet Underground´s John Cale and continued to dominate through their Martin Hannett work ´Bummed´ and Number 1 album ´Pills, Thrills & Bellyaches´. The top 20 hit ´Hallelujah´ and 1990´s top 10 classic ´Step On´ marked them as voices of a generation.
As regulars at Manchester´s landmark Hacienda nightclub and part of the Factory Records legacy, it´s only apt that the Happy Mondays return to play their home city at the Victoria Warehouse, the most impressive venue to hit the city since their rise 20 years ago.
