EXTC-XTC'S Terry Chambers & Friends - The musical catalogue of XTC LIVE for the first time in nearly 40 years!
WHAT DO YOU CALL THAT NOISE? EXTC!
Making Plans for Nigel... Senses Working Overtime... Life Begins at the Hop...
Dear God... Sgt. Rock (Is Going to Help Me)...
XTC is one of the most groundbreaking and influential British bands to have
emerged from the new wave scene. While XTC are no more, the power-pop baton
has now passed to EXTC – an XTC-approved band featuring legendary original
drummer, Terry Chambers.
What's in store? A full set of classic XTC songs, spanning the band's 20-plus-year
career, from their Monkees-meets-Captain-Beefheart roots to the pastoral pop of
later albums. And all delivered with the same fire and passion witnessed in XTC's
gigging heyday, which included worldwide tours with The Police and Talking
Heads.
Alongside Terry, EXTC features Steve Tilling (vocals, guitar, ex-TC&I – the band
of Colin Moulding and Terry Chambers), Beren Matthews (guitar, vocals) and Ken
Wynne (bass, vocals). And for the ultimate stamp of approval, EXTC comes with
the support and blessing of XTC luminaries Andy Partridge and Dave Gregory.
Artists worldwide – including Blur, They Might Be Giants, Steven Wilson, Kaiser
Chiefs, Field Music, Everything Everything and Franz Ferdinand – cite XTC as a
major influence. The band is also often compared reverentially to acts including
The Who, The Kinks, and The Beatles.
What do you call that noise that you put on? This is Pop!

EXTC
New Wave
XTC is one of the UK's most revered and influential bands. While XTC are no more, their legacy has passed to EXTC − the band of legendary XTC drummer, Terry Chambers. For the ultimate stamp of approval, the band comes with the support of XTC main men, Andy Partridge and Dave Gregory.
Hot on the heels of a storming headline appearance at the Isle of Wight Festival, EXTC perform a full set of XTC classics, from their adrenalised early anthems through to the psychedelia-infused rock of later albums. And you can expect the band to deliver the same fire seen in XTC's gigging heyday, which included worldwide tours with The Police and Talking Heads. EXTC is also busy writing new material that will pay homage to the past while forging an exciting new musical future.
