The Coral: The Making of the Debut Album

The Coral are celebrating the 21st anniversary of their eponymous debut album. The record was described by NME as being the funniest and most refreshing British debut in years.

In this intimate evening, singer and songwriter James Skelly will be joined by keyboardist Nick Power for an evening of conversation, audience questions and acoustic songs.

The Coral’s eponymous debut remains a totemic release. Sonically unique, wilfully leftfield and thrillingly eclectic, The Coral combined psychedelia with dub, disco groove with pop and ragtime with Egyptian reggae on a remarkable debut that has proved to be timeless. 21 years on, that records sounds as fresh and remarkable as it did when it was released on 29 July 2002.
