About
Inspiral Carpets are an English rock band, part of the late-1980s/early-1990s Madchester movement and known for using organs and distorted guitars with influences from psychedelic rock. The band was formed in Oldham in 1983; its most successful line-up featured frontman Tom Hingley, drummer Craig Gill, guitarist Graham Lambert, bassist Martyn Walsh, and keyboardist Clint Boon.

Going by The Furs, Lambert formed line-ups loosely with various past band members from 1980 to 1983 until he and singer Stephen Holt met at The Moor End indie disco in Oldham in 1983. Holt sang on the first two independent singles. Holt departed the band before they signed with Mute Records. In 2011, Hingley departed the band, though members disagree about the circumstances. The band continued, reuniting with Holt. Inactive since Gill's death in 2016, the band announced on 17 October 2022 that they would be re-forming and going on a tour of the UK in March and April 2023.
