The Distractions

One of Manchester’s legendary bands, The Distractions were well known on the post-punk music scene 1978-1982. They released records on the TJM, Factory, Island and Rough Trade labels to excellent reviews, as well as sharing bills with Joy Division, Echo and the Bunnymen, The Fall, The Members, Squeeze and many others, before splitting up.
In 2016 two of the original members, vocalist Mike Finney and drummer Alex got together with some friends to play a one off gig. It went so well they decided to continue as a live act playing their singles, songs from the album “Nobody’s Perfect” and new material written by the band with new members Chris Dutton, Graham Battersby and Joe Brehony who have played in many leading Manchester bands such as Kill Pretty, Blue Orchids and The Things.
