Multi-platinum, alternative rock pioneers The Smashing Pumpkins first emerged out of Chicago back in 1988. Combining rock, pop, shoegaze, metal, goth, psychedelia and electronic to create their own unique sound, the world had never heard a band quite like them. They have sold over 30 million albums worldwide and taken home two Grammy Awards, two MTV VMAs and an American Music Award. Their extensive back catalogue is highlighted by the platinum ‘Gish’ (1991), the quadruple-platinum ‘Siamese Dream’ (1993), diamond-certified ‘Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness’ (1995), platinum ‘Adore’ (1998), and gold ‘Machina/The Machines of God’ (2000).
In 2018, they embarked on one of their most successful tours ever dubbed the Shiny and Oh So Bright Tour, which was followed by their tenth studio album ‘Shiny and Oh So Bright Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun’. 2020 saw the release of the band’s eleventh full-length and latest double album ‘CYR’. More recently, 2023 has so far seen the release of album ‘ATUM’, a rock opera presented in three acts, alongside a massive sold out North American tour. The Smashing Pumpkins have also confirmed that they are currently working on new music, with more details to come.
Weezer will make their much-anticipated return to the UK following the Hella Mega sold-out stadium tour with Green Day and Fall Out Boy. Their music has been streamed billions of times and they have sold over 35 million records worldwide since their debut album’s release in 1994.
Their catalogue of hits includes tracks like ‘Buddy Holly’, ‘Undone (The Sweater Song)’, ‘Say It Ain’t So’, ‘El Scorcho’, ‘Hash Pipe’, ‘Island In The Sun’, ‘Beverly Hills’, ‘Pork and Beans’ and more.
