From The Jam

Dates: 23 May 2025 - 23 May 2025

Location: Liverpool Olympia - West Derby Road

On 17th February 2025 the music world sadly lost the drummer of the rock band The Jam, Rick Buckler. He was responsible for beating the drum to many of their classic hits from their early formation in the early 70s through to its break-up in the early 1980s.

During this time they became a critically acclaimed and commercially successful rock band with an original sound as part of the mod revival movement in England's music and fashion scenes of the period.

One of their most successful albums was the November 1979 release ‘Setting Sons’. The only song released from this album was ‘The Eton Rifles’ – 26th October. It became the group’s first top 10 UK hit peaking at number three.

Take a look at an archive performance from Top of the Pops –

This record is having an anniversary celebration thanks to ‘From the Jam’ – featuring Bruce Foxton from the original Jam line up.

It all kicks off Friday 23rd May 2025 from 7pm at –Liverpool Olympia – West Derby Road. Tickets are available to book from the following website link –

It will also be a fitting tribute to their late drummer Rick Buckler.
