Hailing from Manchester, indie rock quartet Courteeners' alternately jangly and bombastic brand of indie guitar rock bears the influence of the leading lights of three previous waves of Mancunian Brit-pop -- the Smiths, the Stone Roses, and Oasis -- as well as comparisons to contemporaries like Kasabian, Editors, and Kaiser Chiefs. They debuted in the late 2000s with the hit album St. Jude, evolving over the years by incorporating synth pop and dance grooves on albums such as 2013's Anna, 2020's More. Again. Forever., and 2024's Pink Cactus Cafe.
