Post punk pioneers Chameleons have announced a UK tour concluding with a huge hometown Albert Hall gig.
The Manchester gig is one of five UK dates they have announced. They will also headline shows in Bristol, London, Glasgow and Newcastle.
The tour is one of Chameleons’ biggest runs in decades with the Manchester homecoming marking the latest in their annual Home Is Where The Heart Is gigs. Chameleons will this year be hosting Home Is Where The Heart Is 2024 from Manchester’s Albert Hall. While it will be the 10th consecutive edition of the HIWTHI series, the upcoming show will be the band’s first ever time playing the iconic venue.
Formed in Greater Manchester in 1981 by singer and bassist Mark Burgess, Chameleons have remained one of the city’s most revered bands among musos ever since their inception. They have released four studio albums (Script of the Bridge (1983), What Does Anything Mean? Basically (1985), Strange Times (1986) and Why Call It Anything (2001)), plus Peel sessions, live records, compilations and an EP (Tony Fletcher Walked on Water…. La La La La La-La La-La-La (1990)).
