Resurrection Bank Holiday Sunday 20th April The Leadmill


Main Room : 89 99 Indie, Britpop, Madchester.

For one night only, Resurrection aims to bring back to life the musical greatness of the 89-99 era of UK Indie and Club culture. In the main room of Sheffields historical 1000 capacity landmark music venue, The Leadmill, we will delve into the eleven years that heralded the defining era of Britpop, Madchester and Alt Rock.

In April 1989, the Stone Roses released their eponymous debut album and changed the musical landscape of the UK almost overnight, giving birth to a music genre which would becom e known as Madchester, which infused elements of traditional guitar music with the the new and exciting Acid House culture that was emerging through the seminal Haçienda nightclub in Manchester. Artists such as the Happy Mondays, James, The Charlatans and Inspiral Carpets emerged from Manchester in the same period, along with other UK bands with similar influences such as Primal Scream and and The Farm.

Fast forward five years to April 1994 and Sheffield band Pulp release the critically acclaimed His n Hers , just as the exciting new Britpop scene gets into full swing with Blurs Parklife and Oasiss Definitely Maybe becoming two of the biggest selling albums that year. The Britpop era lasted through most of the 90s with hit releases by bands such as Elastica, Ocean Colour Scene, Suede & Supergrass, not forgetting the massive follow-up releases by Pulp, Blur and Oasis in 1995.

This music was the soundtrack to Cool Brittania, otherwise characterised by a booming economy, football fever as England hosted Euro 96 and the success of British films such as Trainspotting, Lock Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels and The Full Monty, not to mention a seismic shift in the balance of political power.

For one night only this golden era of music and the spirit of that time will be recreated in the Leadmill main room, but thats not all
