Mani originally found fame as bassist for the Stone Roses, joining in 1987 and playing on both their iconic albums, until they first disbanded in 1996. He then went on to join Primal Scream and stayed with them until 2011, when the Stone Roses reformed.
Now, he’s set to recount his experiences as part of both bands in a new conversation tour, which will see him head to venues across the UK between September 2026 and June 2027.
Per an official website, Mani will look back on moments such as the iconic 1990 Spike Ilsnad gig, as well as the Stone Roses’ comeback stadium tour.
“He’ll remember ‘Fools Gold’, Wembley Stadium, Ally Pally, court cases, bucket hats, Adidas, ‘Screamadelica’, and the ‘Second Coming’. It’s What The World Is Waiting For,” the website reads.
Tickets are available here, and you can see a full list of dates below.
