Brooklyn Vegan Presents: Swervedriver raise at 35

Brooklyn Vegan Presents: Swervedriver raise at 35 at El Club, Detroit on Sat, Aug 22, 7:00 PM. Tickets from $41.20. Lineup, start time and tickets on Ckord.

Legendary UK alternative rock band Swervedriver returns with the hypnotic guitars, driving rhythms, and wall-of-sound intensity that helped define an era of underground rock music. Formed in Oxford in 1989 by core members Adam Franklin and Jimmy Hartridge, Swervedriver became one of the most influential bands to emerge from the UK alternative and shoegaze movement, blending noise rock, psychedelia, and melodic songwriting into classics like Raise, Mezcal Head, and 99th Dream. Across decades, the band has built a cult following worldwide through their immersive live performances and unmistakable sound. Following the successful reissue of 99th Dream — which reached No. 18 on the UK Albums Chart and No. 6 on the UK Vinyl Albums Chart — Swervedriver continues their next chapter with the release of the brand new World’s Fair EP, their first new music in over five years. Expect an unforgettable night of soaring guitars, fuzzed-out atmospheres, and timeless alternative rock from one of the genre’s most respected and enduring bands. Don’t miss the chance to experience Swervedriver live.
