At Manford's invitation, Carroll gave a short performance at the start of Manford's live show in front of more than 1,400 people at St. George's Hall in Bradford. The performance was featured on a segment of BBC One's The One Show. He performed with Manford again on 21 and 22 June 2013 at the Victoria Theatre in Halifax.
