After turning down The Smiths, Si went to a few auditions: ABC, Prefab Sprout, then a band called The Colourfield.
The band was fronted by Terry Hall (The Specials & Fun Boy Three). Terry hired Si to do a live TV show in Newcastle for The Tube. However, rehearsals in Coventry weren’t without a few car problems!
Season One of The X Generation brings you key moments in Simon Wolstencroft’s musical career that have influenced some of the greatest Manchester bands of all time.
