Then Jerico

Whelan's, Friday 20th February

Rock band Then Jerico have announced their UK and EU tour The Return, which includes a stop at Whelan's Main Room, Dublin on Friday 20th February.

The band will perform a 90-minute set featuring their most popular singles, including tracks from their first two albums First (The Sound of Music) and The Big Area (Outside).

Formed in 1983 by lead singer Mark Shaw, Then Jerico released their best known songs like ‘Muscle Deep', ‘What Does It Take?', and ‘Sugar Box' in the first few years as a band. Their song ‘Big Area' was used by RTÉ as theme music for its televised US golf programmes in the '90s.

The band broke up in 1990, with Shaw starting his solo career right after. He released Then Jerico's album Orgasmaphobia, with a new line-up made up of Andy Taylor (Duran Duran/Power Station) and Mick MacNeil (Simple Minds) in 1999.
