Founded in 1986, the award-winning band’s hits include their all-time best single ‘I Useta Lover’ and three Number One hits in the Republic of Ireland.

The band have also revealed a special guest for their headline concert at Castlefield Bowl, confirming Daimen Dempsey will be their support act when they visit Manchester once more.
