The Thousands

Seminal noise-pop outfit Jesus and Mary Chain only reformed last year after a bout of unhappy families. Having already played at Coachella and after securing a spot on the V Festival line up, work has started on what will be the band’s first album in nine years. Their live shows involve an edgy collision of bubblegum pop and heavy distortion with a cocky punk swagger. Their first reunion show involved a guest performance by Scarlett Johansson. With support from Ghostwood and The Rakes who knows what surprises this gig will hold? – JG
