Scot rockers Jim and William Reid are back on the road 34 years after first forming the band.
Their seventh album Damage and Joy — their first since 1998 — was released back in March.

“To make a good record is an achievement if you’re 22, but to do it in your 50, the way we are, I think is a minor miracle.”
The Jesus and Mary Chain embarked upon a UK and Ireland tour to coincide with the album's release.
As these shows proved to be a success, the band added extra shows throughout September and October, including one at Sheffield’s Foundry venue next Monday, September 25.
