Tuesday Featured Artist: The Jesus and Mary Chain

Listen for a song from our Tuesday Featured Artist every hour from 6 a.m. to  6 p.m.

Few bands have had such a huge effect on musical culture, as The Jesus and Mary Chain. Their attitude alone, dressed in black, angry with the world, playing short sets drenched in feedback, set the bench mark in the post Sex Pistols music scene of London. Their seminal debut album Psychocandy would go on to change the course of popular music, channeling the sneering angst and noise distortion of the live shows into hypnotic sweet melodies layered with dark lyrics that would beguile and bewilder. They are currently touring in support of their 7th album Damage and Joy. WFPK is proud to present The Jesus and Mary Chain at Headliners this Saturday (11/11).
