Mani introduced the The Coral onstage in Salford on Saturday (July 17), before declaring that their new LP ‘Butterfly House’ is the “best thing I’ve heard since the first [Stone] Roses album”.
The Primal Scream and Freebass man took to the stage at the Lowry venue and declared “the third summer of love is open”.
He announced: “By way of outer space and Hoylake, please welcome my mates, the psychedelic scallies The Coral!”
