From the Jam

On 6 June 2026 at Islington Assembly Hall, London, From the Jam revisit the catalogue of The Jam, the Woking trio that fused mod drive, punk bite, new wave angles and power‑pop melody. Formed by Paul Weller, Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler, The Jam moved fast from early covers of Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Motown to a taut, melodic writing style, with Foxton’s upfront bass and Weller’s sharp, street‑level lyrics. Their story runs from the rush of 1977’s In the City and This Is the Modern World to the crafted punch of All Mod Cons and Setting Sons, then the sleeker edges of Sound Affects and The Gift, folding 60s soul and beat influences into a lean, nervous groove.

Narratives anchored in everyday England, clipped guitars, driving rhythms and choruses that stick: From the Jam carry that energy on stage, stitching together the raw beginnings and the later, more soul‑tinged turns to retrace a decade where the band broadened its palette without losing its bite.
