Chameleons

From the venue:

Chameleons
The legacy of The Chameleons dates all the way back to 1981 when the band were discovered by the legendary BBC Radio host John Peel. Following their debut single ‘In Shreds’ for Epic Records in 1982,  the band released three seminal albums: the widely acclaimed ‘Script of the Bridge’ (1983), cited by many sources to be a masterpiece way ahead of its time, its follow up ‘What Does Anything Mean?  Basically!’ (1984) and for the US based Geffen Records ‘Strange Times’ (1986). Their unique sound  quickly captivated the public through their very own mix of melancholic, yet energetic and powerful tunes, hypnotic ethereal riffs and the potent, timeless lyrical style. The Chameleons are considered to be  one of the most influential guitar bands of the 80s and 90s, contributing substantially to the post-punk,  shoegaze and indie scenes and are often regarded as one of the most underrated bands ever to emerge  from the city of Manchester England.
