Nothing But Thieves

Nothing But Thieves land at Nottingham Arena, Nottingham, on 4 February 2027 with the tense, melodic alternative rock that has shaped them since their Southend-on-Sea beginnings. Fronted by Conor Mason alongside Joe Langridge-Brown, Dominic Craik, Philip Blake and James Price, the band shifts between incisive guitars, tight rhythms and a darker electronic hue that has grown across their records. From the immediacy of their self-titled debut and Broken Machine to the punchier writing of the EP What Did You Think When You Made Me This Way? and Moral Panic, they’ve stretched their palette while keeping a compact, driving core. Dead Club City pushed the synths and a more futuristic finish, adding new textures to their live dynamics.

On stage, Nothing But Thieves move from bristling riffs to slower, brooding passages with ease, leaning on strong hooks without overplaying the effect. Years of clubs, Reading and Leeds or Isle of Wight slots, and runs opening for Muse have shaped a set that balances tension and release. In Nottingham, they’ll draw across the catalogue, from rawer early cuts to the sleeker, synth-tinged tracks, carried by the collective energy that defines the group.
