FIRST (The Sound Of Music)’ 40th Anniversary Tour 2026/27 is in celebration of the 40th Anniversary of the release of the titular debut Then Jerico album which featured two Top 40 hits ‘Muscle Deep’ and ‘The Motive’ (the highest played single on BBC Radio One in 1987 and the band’s first Top 20 hit).
The album was both critically and commercially successful worldwide, achieving Gold sales status in the U.K. and included two other Top 75 hit singles: ‘Let Her Fall’ and the band’s cover of Roxy Music’s ‘Prairie Rose’. The album was co-produced by Owen Davies and Mark Shaw.
Then Jerico achieved huge critical and commercial worldwide success in the 1980’s, gaining a dedicated worldwide following and building an international reputation for their legendary explosive live performances.

In 2024, Mark released a 4CD Boxed Set retrospective: Then Jerico - Before The Future’ on Cherry Red Records, entering the Official UK National Album Chart at No.50 and the Official UK National Independent Charts at No.21.
