A return to one of our favourite venues, The Jericho, for The Monochrome Set and their long term friends, Peerless Pirates.
The band feature original Monochrome Set members Bid (guitar/vocals) and Andy Warren (bass) with Athen Ayren on keyboards and Stephen Gilchrist on drums.
The Monochrome Set formed in 1978, and were heavily influential in the post-punk scene that evolved after the initial scorched earth of punk.
The band's early releases were on the legendary Rough Trade Label before signing with Virgin offshoot Din Disc. They also released several albums on the Cherry Red label, making a notable appearance on that labels' well known "Pillows and Prayers" compilation.
Though The Monochrome Set split in 1985 the next decade saw several reunions for both live gigs and further studio recordings. After a hiatus of over a decade the band reformed full time in 2010 and have since toured all over the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA, whilst also releasing seven new, critically acclaimed, studio albums.
Now in their 47th year, they are beginning a new series of gigs promoting their latest album and playing songs old and new.
Peerless Pirates
Peerless Pirates, as a canvas for high energy guitar cranking tunes, have existed in many forms since their initiation in 2008 arriving at the line up they sport today. It has been an interesting voyage thus far taking in countless gigs up and down the country, the highlights of which include an appearance at Glastonbury Festival and support slots with the likes of Big Country and The Monochrome Set.
Releases to date have seen the eponymous debut 15-tracker “Peerless Pirates”, the follow up “Banquet For Bandits” and the latest new album, "Adventures For Artisans". There have also been EPs “Thieves & Miscreants”, “Nelson’s Folly” and “El Gringo”.
The band haven’t been shy at keeping off the airwaves either with live sessions & interviews for both Recharged Radio and BBC Introducing plus a host of local radio appearances.
To close, Peerless Pirates hail from middle England – the pastures of Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire serving as their stamping ground. Their sound is a rollicking roustabout mix of classic 80’s energetic indie, sea shanties, rockabilly, surf-rock and spaghetti western soundtracks. “Rum-soaked fun” is a phrase often and, justifiably, bandied about. If you’ve forgotten the time when indie sounded like fun then here’s your chance to get re-acquainted.
Jody & The Jerms
Jody & The Jerms formed in Oxford in 2020 and since then have released three albums, many singles and toured up and down the UK and beyond learning their craft and putting on 'an uplifting and joyous live show.’ “It’s almost like power pop, a bit Bangles, a bit jangle pop and rather lovely." Radcliffe & Maconie, BBC 6 Music
