Liverpool · Formed 1988
The Britpop originators from Bootle. Griffiths brothers, their own studio on the Dock Road — and the band who helped a young Oasis make their first records.
The Story
Before Britpop had a name
Formed in 1988, The Real People were making swaggering Liverpool guitar music before anyone thought to call it Britpop — and they helped a young Oasis record the demos that won them a deal. Chris and Tony Griffiths have since written hits for Cher, Rooster and more, and they are still out on the road today.
