The silly Manchester talk in the controversial thread inspired this. I reckon any town/city in the UK with a 150,000 population has delivered at least one good musical artist/band.
I haven’t given this much thought.
PROVE ME WRONG!
How are we defining “good”? Like does a quality band that never really got beyond their local scene count or are we talking a band that achieved some sort of commerical and recognisable success at least nationally who may or may not be as good “quality” wise? Does it need to be both?
