Inside Manchester's new music art shop run by man behind iconic Oasis album covers

From designing the classic Oasis logo in 1993, to every record sleeve released by Oasis and The Verve in the 1990s, Microdot is no ordinary memorabilia shop.

The new store on King Street, launched by Wigan-born graphic designer Brian Cannon - the man who created the cover for Oasis' debut album 'Definitely Maybe' - sells a wide range of artwork, merchandise and memorabilia. His studio Microdot is also behind a selection of artwork for Suede, Cast, Ash and Super Furry Animals.

Unlike other music art shops, everything on sale and on display was created at Microdot and directly commissioned by the bands themselves - a USP Brian is particularly proud of. The King Street space also features the fireplace featured on the aforementioned Oasis album leant to the shop by the band's co-founder Bonehead.
