The 1975, Self Esteem, Ural Thomas and the Pain, The Comet Is Coming, Victoria Canal
Jools welcomes award-winning, festival-headlining, chart-topping Manchester band The 1975, who make their debut on the show performing a couple of tracks from their upcoming fifth album Being Funny in a Foreign Language, which sees them build on their witty lyricism and infectious synth-pop sound.
Returning to the show following her debut in 2021, Rotherham's powerhouse vocalist and icon of female empowerment Self Esteem performs songs from her Mercury Prize-shortlisted album Prioritise Pleasure, having just completed a marathon of tour dates and festival appearances as well as composing the soundtrack for Suzie Miller's West End play Prima Facie earlier this year.
Completing the line-up are three more debutants. First, US soul group Ural Thomas and the Pain, whose frontman is one of the original singers of the 50s and 60s soul era. He rubbed shoulders with some of the biggest names in music, from Etta James to Mick Jagger and Stevie Wonder. They perform a new song from their recent third album Dancing Dimensions.
Next up is London collective The Comet Is Coming, who consist of saxophone player Shabaka Hutchings, keyboardist Dan Leavers and drummer Max Hallett. They tear the roof off the theatre with a performance of their ‘intergalactic head-banger' Code, which explores hidden meaning in humans and technology.
And lastly, German-born Spanish-American pianist and singer-songwriter Victoria Canal performs her track Swan Song, which was praised by Chris Martin as 'one of the best songs ever written'.
