About the band



The band who originally sung the song we intend to film our music video for are The Coral.


The Coral were formed in 1996, in the UK. The band mixes the psychedelic and modern rock genre into their recordings. The group, which has six members met at high school. Ever since then, they would practice songs at each others houses until they were signed by Liverpool label Deltasonic.

The band are James Skelly who sings and plays guitar, Paul Duffy and Bill Ryder also on guitar, Lee Southall on bass, Nick Power on keyboards, and Ian Skelly on drums. However, Bill Ryder left the band in 2008, leaving them with just five members for their most recent album.
Their debut album of 2002, entitled simply The Coral reached number five on the UK charts. They have released four albums since, entitled Magic and Medicine, The Invisible Invasion, Roots and Echoes and Butterfly House respectively. They have also released a singles collection after their first four albums.

Watch a video of The Coral performing live
The Coral are playing Glastonbury in this video, which is quite a large festival for the group to have played. This performance is simply the band singing on stage, more like a typical performance by a band, unlike some of their less mainstream videos.
