Joe Jackson « Hope and Fury Tour 2026 »

Joe Jackson brings his Hope and Fury Tour 2026 to the London Palladium on 4 October 2026. A singer-songwriter and pianist trained at the Royal Academy of Music, he has moved through pop, rock, new wave and orchestral writing since the late 1970s with singular ease, cultivating a broad and varied repertoire.

From the nervy beginnings of Look Sharp! and I’m the Man to the urban hues of Night and Day, his discography progresses through Body and Soul, Big World and then more orchestral projects before a return to the band format. Steppin’ Out remains a landmark, but his later albums — Rain, Fast Forward, Fool and What a Racket! (2023) — testify to a constant appetite for exploration.

On stage, Jackson likes to juxtapose his band numbers with more stripped-down piano pieces, alternating rhythmic tension and melodic interludes without losing the thread. This London date frames more than forty years of songwriting and touring, in a career where every period finds its place, from the classics to his most recent tracks.
