Reflecting on 25 years in the music industry Badly Drawn Boy also paid tribute to Manchester greats Tony Wilson and Caroline Aherne
Badly Drawn Boy embarked on an emotional journey during his Manchester homecoming show at the city’s Stoller Hall.
This encouragement, which clearly meant a lot to Badly Drawn Boy, was delivered by his grown up children Oscar and Edie. Badly Drawn Boy’s current run of shows are celebrating and commemorating the ups and downs of his 25-year music career. By his own admission, he often ‘runs out of time’ from talking too much on stage. Although, it is an endearing charm his fans have come to expect. At one point, the show stopped as Gough told the stunning venue’s audience how the About a Boy producers wanted a soundtrack that sounded like Bob Dylan with the music icon being too expensive. So, Badly Drawn Boy was sent away to see what he could create.
He spoke with great passion about Whalley Range, Collyhurst and other Manchester suburbs which played a part in the singer-songwriter's early life. Being a retrospective, there were also emotional dedications during the intimate 25th anniversary concert.
