Franz Ferdinand biography

Franz Ferdinand is a Scottish rock band that formed in Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom, in 2002 and played an important part in the post-punk revival of the 2000s. The band was composed of Alex Kapranos (lead vocals and guitar), Bob Hardy (bass guitar), Nick McCarthy (rhythm guitar, keyboards and backing vocals) and Paul Thomson (drums, percussion and backing vocals) until 2016 when McCarthy left them.

As of October 2021, Audrey Tait (drums) has replaced Paul Thomson, after he amicably separated from the band. - Discography Franz Ferdinand (2004) You Could Have It So Much Better (2005) Blood; Franz Ferdinand (2009) Tonight: Franz Ferdinand (2009) Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action (2013) FFS (2015) (Collaborative album with the band Sparks) Always Ascending (2018) Hits to the Head (2022)

    What's interesting in Manchester?

    Manchester has become one of the largest cities in Britain over the past hundred years. Although Manchester is a city with a very rich history, the main focus of its development has always been industry. The center is almost entirely furnished with warehouses and factory buildings, entangled with a network of canals and old railway bridges. It is quite natural that no one gave such kindness to the reduction of production: in the former shops now open fashionable bars, in factory warehouses - designer shops, and under the old bridges "settled" nightclubs. It was for the active nightlife of the city and got its middle name - Madchester.
