Bio
Lightning Seeds are an alternative/pop band, largely the brainchild of writer, singer and guitarist Ian Broudie (born 4th August 1958 in Liverpool, England). The band currently consists of Ian Broudie (vocals, guitar), Riley Broudie (guitar), Martyn Campbell (bass), Angie Pollock (keyboard) and Jack Prince (drums).
The perfect blend of intimacy and communal joy, the power of storytelling and perfectly realised pop combine together into a glorious few hours at Manchester’s Albert Hall tonight with Badly Drawn Boy and The Lightning Seeds.
Arriving to the venue ahead of the scheduled door opening times I could see people filing into the Town Hall so I walked it and got set up. Before I knew it the lights dimmed and Badly Drawn Boy walked out onto stage to a handful of waiting ears.
Stood under a giant strawberry, The Lightning Seeds front man clearly feels at home. He and a newly assembled band are enjoying a trip down memory lane with a performance of Jollification, the first half of their gig.
