Info
Belle and Sebastian bring their 1996 album If You’re Feeling Sinister to Massey Hall on May 26, 2026, performing it in full before moving into classic songs from across their catalogue. Formed in mid‑90s Glasgow around the writing of Stuart Murdoch, the group grew into a flexible ensemble with Stevie Jackson, Chris Geddes, Sarah Martin and Richard Colburn among others. Their sound blends indie pop and chamber pop, understated melodies with string or brass shades, and lyrics that sketch everyday characters and city life.
If You’re Feeling Sinister set the template with spare arrangements and close-up storytelling; this show gives the album a full airing before opening to staples drawn from Tigermilk, The Boy with the Arab Strap, Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a Peasant, and later turns like Dear Catastrophe Waitress, The Life Pursuit or Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance. From acoustic corners to more polished pop, the band keeps the focus on songcraft that works on stage. Toronto hears the album front to back at Massey Hall, then the wider songbook that has carried Belle and Sebastian from local beginnings to an enduring place in indie pop.
