 | Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of their first hit single Sherry, American pop music legends Frankie Valli And The Four Seasons will perform at the Manchester Arena this summer. Formed in New Jersey in 1955 by falsetto lead singer Frankie Valli, the group scored their first number one in the summer of 1962 with Sherry. One of the few Stateside groups whose reign of hits was uninterrupted by The Beatles and the British Invasion, Frankie Valli And The Four Seasons went on to enjoy a series of hit singles including Bye Bye Baby (Baby Goodbye), Walk Like A Man, Can't Take My Eyes Off You, Working My Way Back To You and the disco classic December, 1963 (Oh, What A Night!). The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990 and the Vocal Hall of Fame in 1999. More recently, the life and times of Frankie and his legendary group became the basis for the award-winning Broadway and West End musical Jersey Boys.

 | Happy Mondays
Bez, Gary Whelan, Mark Day, Paul Davies, Paul Ryder, Rowetta and Shaun Ryder - the original line-up of Happy Mondays - are back together for the first time in over 19 years and will embark on an 11 date UK tour this spring including a massive show at their hometown Manchester Arena. Shaun Ryder said: "We all met up last week and some of the lads haven't seen each other in over 10, 15 years. It's as if we've never been apart - so good to all be in the same room again. We can't wait now to get on tour and play the songs that made us famous".
Happy Mondays were first discovered by the legendary Tony Wilson in the Hacienda and have become synonymous with the Manchester music scene. Since their first album Squirrel and G-Man Twenty Four Hour Party People Plastic Face Carnt Smile (White Out) which debuted in 1987, Happy Mondays followed up with the two classic albums Bummed in 1988, then Pills 'n' Thrills and Bellyaches which went on to achieve platinum status in the UK alone. Expect to hear the classic songs Step On, Kinky Afro, Hallelujah, 24 Hour Party People and many, many more. Happy Mondays will be joined by special guests - the newly reformed Inspiral Carpets.
