Update - June 2026

After an amazing experience playing our 35th anniversary show in Peterborough last May, we closed an otherwise quiet 2025 with a storming full-set, headlining the Prog the Forest festival at the famous Fiddler’s Elbow in Camden. It was a cracking gig alongside some great bands. Most enjoyable. We’re very pleased to say that things are looking a little busier for 2026 between May and November. We’re looking forward to a number of festival appearances, as well as a couple of important double-header gigs where we’ll be playing full sets…

A Prog Day in May - Done and Dusted


Things kicked off on Saturday May 23rd when we returned to headline the Key Theatre in Peterborough for an expanded event - ‘A Prog Day in May’ - this time our special guests were the absolutely wonderful Spriggan Mist.



Back in Court - Prog for Peart - The Return


On Saturday July 18th we return to The Northcourt in Abingdon for an appearance at the Prog For Peart Festival. This indoor three-day event raises money for brain cancer charities and features a fantastic lineup. P for P is one of the progressive rock community’s gems. We’ll be be renewing old acquaintance with the fantastic Mostly Autumn who will be headlining on the night we play. For the full lineup and tickets go here.

Day Dreaming!

On Sunday August 23rd, we return to play A New Day Festival in Kent. We had an absolute blast at this one in 2024. With two stages in the idyllic setting of Mt Ephraim Gardens, fabulous beer, and wall-to-wall sunshine (it’s Kent…) this year’s Festival features Hawkwind, Gong, Sweet, Lindisfarne, Curved Air etc etc, so you can’t go far wrong really. We’ll be able to announce our slot once the lineup is complete. In the meantime, visit:

Sausages and Poachers - Lincolnshire here we come.


On Sunday September 6th, just two weeks after our visit to Kent, we’re heading over to Lincolnshire where we’ve been invited to play at the Nene Valley Rock Festival, a boutique event which takes place in the grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle. With Focus, Colosseum, and FM as headliners, the quality across two stages abounds. Check it out here.

 



Vive La France, Vive Lazuli!!!


Sunday October 15th is a date you simply MUST put in your diary, MUST buy a ticket for, and MUST NOT MISS. Why would that be? Well it’s because we’re doing a full-scale double header with our friends from France, Lazuli. This means we’ll be playing a full-length set and so will they. If you’ve ever seen them, you’ll be there, and if you’ve never seen them, they will blow you away. The gig takes place at Mama Roux’s in the centre of Birmingham and will begin promptly with doors opening at 7pm and JUMP on shortly thereafter. This will be a highlight, so do your best. There’s loads of reasonably priced accommodation within walking distance, transport links from every direction are good, and there are more canals in Birmingham than Venice, so you can catch a gondola if necessary…

Get your tickets here, and get them NOW!!!

From Pwllheli to Chichester - it has to be HRH Prog


As the winter nights draw in we enjoy a blast from the past - not to mention a blast from the North Sea, when we appear at HRH Prog 16. The previous editions of this festival that we’ve played all took place at Hafan y Mor in North Wales, but this time we head south to Chichester. Once again it’s three days of mouth-watering music with JUMP scheduled to play for at round 75 mins on Saturday evening November 14th. This is always a major event in the calendar, so we’re chuffed to be invited. More details here.

Danfest Ahoy!


Danfest
is one of the great institutions of the U.K. progressive scene. Every year, Danny Mayo organises one of the best musical gatherings you’ll see anywhere. The festival which began life at the famous and now sadly expired The Musician venue in Leicester has moved down the road to The International. We’re first on the Sunday night session, November 29th before the event is wrapped up by our friends EBB. Another amazing line-up, another Danfest for JUMP. Ticket details to follow…
