The Jesus and Mary Chain

Scottish noise‑pop pioneers have blended feedback‑laden guitars with melodic pop hooks since the late‑80s, forging a dark, atmospheric sound that helped define alternative rock. Renowned for brooding, high‑volume live shows, the duo has cultivated a reputation for intense, immersive concerts, often punctuated by long periods of inactivity between tours. The band will return to the stage with a four‑date UK headline run in January 2027, opening at O2 Academy Leeds on Jan 19, followed by Glasgow on Jan 22, Birmingham on Jan 26, and concluding at British Airways ARC in London on Jan 29.
