The Guilty Men to play Manchester's Carlton Club this October

The Guilty Men bring Invisible Confetti to Manchester

The Guilty Men are set to headline the Carlton Club, Manchester on Thursday 23 October 2025 as part of their autumn UK tour. The 10-date run follows the release of their 2024 debut album Invisible Confetti, which blends Americana, folk, pop, country and psychedelia across 13 live-recorded tracks.

The group was formed in 2021 by Clive Gregson (Any Trouble) and Neil Cossar (The Cheaters), later joined by Jez Smith and Craig Fletcher of John Lees’ Barclay James Harvest, with 10cc’s Paul Burgess on drums. Their live-first approach shaped Invisible Confetti, recorded in a handful of takes with four different lead vocalists.

Their first single Susan’s Back Drinking came with a video by acclaimed director Nigel Dick and was named ‘Single of the Week’ on more than 50 UK radio stations. Dangerous Girl, released in January 2025, followed with strong radio support and a 20-date tour earlier this year.

The Guilty Men are now back on the road and currently writing for their second studio album.
