The US Jam

01/18/2008
. (PR) Fresh from a wildly successful series of dates in the UK, founding members of The Jam, Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler, join fellow musicians Dave Moore and Russell Hastings for a 13-city US tour in the New Year starting January 24th in San Diego. These will be the first live shows in the US since the original Jam disbanded.

Drawing inspiration from The Who and the Sex Pistols, The Jam fused a punk-rock sensibility with the classic mod sound and became one of the most influential acts to come out of the UK. During the band's five-year span, The Jam's moody lyrics connected with disenfranchised youth in songs like "Down in the Tube Station" and "In The City."

The power trio kicked off the late 70's mod revival and inspired a legion of British rock bands from The Smiths to Oasis. Current acts like the Kaiser Chiefs, The Futureheads and Supergrass show that their influence is more apparent than ever.
