Popular music of Manchester
Manchester's music scene had successful groups before the mid-1970s, including The Hollies, The Bee Gees, and Herman's Hermits. The Smiths were the definitive Manchester band of the 1980s. Other 1980s bands included New Order and Joy Division. Later in the decade, the ecstasy-fuelled dance club scene played a part in the rise of Madchester. In the 1990s, Manchester saw the rise of Britpop bands, notably Oasis.
==Pop groups of the 1960s and early 1970s==
Manchester had an impressive music scene before 1976, with groups like The Hollies, The Bee Gees, Herman's Hermits, Wayne Fontana and The Mindbenders, Freddie and the Dreamers in the 1960s and Barclay James Harvest and 10cc in the early 1970s. ''Top of the Pops'' was also recorded by the BBC at this time in the city. In 1965, Herman's Hermits outsold The Beatles, selling over 10 million records in seven months.
Manchester bands Freddie and the Dreamers, Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders and Herman's Hermits topped the American Billboard charts consecutively during mid-April – May 1965. In 1965, all three bands were numbers 1, 2 and 3 on the US Billboard top 100 for one week. Graham Nash of The Hollies moved to California to become part of the rapidly expanding music scene there. With the exception of Graham Gouldman of 10cc and Eric Stewart of The Mindbenders (who built Strawberry Studios in Stockport, the UK's first world class recording studio outside London), and Keith Hopwood of Herman's Hermits whose Pluto Studios started in the same building as Strawberry, then spent 1977-1987 in the centre of Manchester there was little reinvestment in Manchester from its local musicians who had been successful.
