The Courteeners

Looking up to The Smiths and New Order your whole life, then forming a band and being asked by Morrissey to be the openers on his tour while Johnny Marr provides highly positive press is about as close to a rock and roll fairy tale is it gets. Manchester born artist Liam Fray experienced this fairy tale after forming his indie rock band The Courteeners, which almost immediately sold out venues across the country. Even with just one album under its belt, the band has garnered the attention of Britain and only continues to flourish under the spotlight on the world stage.
