EMF + Jesus Jones have announced their first ever co-headlining tour for the fall of 2024.

Two of Britain’s most enduring alternative/rock bands from the 90’s are set to go toe-to-toe on what’s sure to be an incredible run of shows together.

Taking over big rooms in Manchester, Bristol, plus a major date at London’s O2 Kentish Town Forum this October, the co-headliners will be sharing a bill for the first time ever. EMF and Jesus Jones will also be joined by special guest Echobelly for the Manchester and London legs of the tour.

Expressing their excitement for the Autumn tour, James and Ian of EMF state, “We are so happy to finally be announcing these very special shows with our long term friends Jesus Jones, it’s been very hard keeping this news a secret! From EMF at these shows you can expect all the old hits with an added couple of bangers from our new album ’The Beauty and the Chaos’”.

Echoing their sentiments in a year where Jesus Jones celebrate their 35th Anniversary, frontman Mike Edwards adds, “People always assume EMF and us were great rivals – nothing could be further from the truth, we’ve been best friends for more than thirty years! Then, the same people always assume we must have been on the same bill, loads of times. Incredibly, it has NEVER happened before, until now. These shows are going to be fantastic – and having Echobelly on the bill too – it’s a brilliant line-up.”

Sporting over 20x Top 40 hits between them, Jesus Jones, EMF, and Echobelly dominated the charts during a vintage era for indie and alternative-dance music.

Fast forward to 2024 and the catalogues of EMF, Jesus Jones, and Echobelly, remain as vital as ever. Pooling their creative forces and impressive collection of hits for a series of major shows together in 2024, tickets for the tour will go on sale this Friday, March 1st at 10am.
