MancMode Meets....

Gary 'Mani' Mounfield


Mani & Francesca L Hall
Needing no further introduction (but in case you have been in a cave for the past 20 years, he's the bassist from The Stone Roses and Primal Scream).


Mancmode was fortunate enough to attend a private viewing of an exhibition by photographer Karin Albinsson at Manchester Photographic in the Northern Quarter. Featuring an historic collection of images of Manchester icons taken over the past 15 years, from Shaun Ryder to Ian Brown, Albinsson told MancMode that this was the first time these images had been exhibited together. "I'm really happy with the way it has turned out.   People should make sure they come and view the pictures as we will have more going up after tonight."


With a plethora of well known faces in attendance including Shaun Ryder, Howard Marks and Manchester composer Francesca L Hall we were able to grab a couple of minutes with Mani to ask him what he thought about the exhibition "I think it's brilliant. I'm a big supporter of Karin's. Anyone who can made Shaun Ryder look that good, or me for that matter... She's been photographing us for the last 15 years so all credit to her".  More than living up to his amiable reputation he was happy to stand around chatting to us and have his photograph taken.



AAA Shaun Ryder & Friends an exhibition by Karin Albinsson is showing at Manchester Photographic until the 30th August 2011.
