FM will perform songs from their past 14 albums including their 1984 debut album Indiscreet, plus Tough It Out, Metropolis, Synchronized and many more.
Formed in the 80's by the Overland brothers FM have become one of the UK's seminal Rock Bands. The bands current line is Steve Overland – Vocals, Merv Goldsworthy - Bass, Pete Jupp - Drums, Jem Davis – Keyboards and Jim Kirkpatrick – Guitar.
“From our meeting in a Notting Hill pub in 1984 to our "one off" comeback gig at Firefest 2007, it's great to now tour beyond our 40th Anniversary shows,” says FM’s drummer, Pete Jupp. “Who'd have thought we'd reach such a milestone?”
Joining FM as special guest we have the unsung rock heroes Tygers of Pan Tang
Tygers of Pan Tang are one of the unsung heroes of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM), emerging from Whitley Bay in 1978 with a ferocious mix of raw power and melody. Their debut album, Wild Cat (1980), was a high-energy assault that put them on the map, but it was Spellbound (1981) and Crazy Nights (1981) that really cemented their legacy—thanks in part to the incendiary guitar work of John Sykes (later of Thin Lizzy and Whitesnake).
Despite lineup changes and shifting trends, the Tygers never lost their bite. After a brief hiatus, they roared back in the late ‘90s, proving their staying power with critically acclaimed releases like Ambush (2012) and Ritual (2019). Still active, still delivering classic heavy metal with modern fire, Tygers of Pan Tang remain one of the genre’s most enduring and underrated forces.

Tygers of Pan Tang
Robb Weir is never a man to take what he has for granted. Having led the Tygers since their first album through a plethora of line-up changes he recognises that the current band are probably the strongest since they were at the forefront of the NWOBHM. The original band, who made 4 albums for MCA records, survived the unexpected departure of Jess Cox to run Neat records and later John Sykes, who was bound for Thin Lizzy and a multi-million seller with Whitesnake. What they didn’t survive was their greatest commercial success with the album ‘The Cage’. However, Weir, ever the optimist, formed a new version of the band to play the old material and write songs that would represent this ‘new’ Tygers. The backbone of the band – Craig Ellis on drums together with Jack Meille on vocals have now been together for considerably longer than the first Tygers and were joined by Francesco Marras on guitar and Huw Holding on bass for their 2023 album ‘Bloodlines’. 2024 year saw the release of both a new live album ‘Live Blood’ and reimagining of the album that put the Tygers back on the rock and roll rails - ‘Animal Instinct’. 2025 promises to see no let up and a new album is expected as well as shows across the UK, Europe and South America.
