The Stone Roses were a relatively short-lived indie phenomenon that inspired the lives of so many in the 1990s following the release of the influential self-titled debut album; an album described by many as the greatest album of all time. They disbanded, much too soon, in 1996 after they struggled to cope with the departure of guitarist John Squires and drummer Alan 'Reni' Wren. A reunion seemed the most unlikeliest of things for this band but, after 16 years, 2012 Ian Brown, John Squire, Alan Wren and Gary Mounfield together on stage once more in one of the most highly anticipated reunions in music history. This documentary follows their day to day lives, catching up on last decade and a half and rehearsing for their record-breaking comeback gigs that brought tears to the eyes of indie fans nationwide.
BAFTA winning Shane Meadows ('This Is England', 'Dead Man's Shoes') directs this exciting new documentary on one of Britain's most influential indie bands. It features never before seen footage of the band from throughout their career and has been produced by Meadows' frequent collaborator Mark Herbert ('Four Lions', 'Donkey Punch'). 'The Stone Roses: Made Of Stone' makes its premiere in Manchester on May 30th 2013 with an official release date for June 5th.
