# Event Details - **Event Name**: The Monochrome Set + Jamie Perrett + Leigh Arthur, Saturday 16th May, The Lexington, London - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 16 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: A return to one of our favourite venues, The Lexington, for The Monochrome Set The band features original Monochrome Set members Bid (guitar/vocals) and Andy Warren (bass), with Dave Morgan (drums), Athen Ayren (keyboard) and the return of "Foz" on guitar. The Monochrome Set formed in 1978, and were heavily influential in the post-punk scene that evolved after the initial scorched earth of punk. The band's early releases were on the legendary Rough Trade Label before signing with Virgin offshoot Din Disc. They also released several albums on the Cherry Red label, making a notable appearance on that labels' well known "Pillows and Prayers" compilation. Though The Monochrome Set split in 1985 the next decade saw several reunions for both live gigs and further studio recordings. After a hiatus of over a decade the band reformed full time in 2010 and have since toured all over the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA, whilst also releasing eight new, critically acclaimed, studio albums. Now in their 48th year, they are beginning a new series of gigs promoting their new album and playing songs from throughout that time. SUPPORT JAMIE PERRETT Jamie Perrett writes songs that cut straight to the bone — gritty, heartfelt, and made for late nights in London. He’s played with Babyshambles, co-fronted Strangefruit, and produced two records for his dad, Peter Perrett of The Only Ones. Now he’s stepping forward with his own sound: post-punk energy, sharp lyrics, and a restless spirit that refuses to sit still. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s only just getting started. LEIGH ARTHUR Leigh Arthur is an Irish singer-songwriter based in London. A veteran of some of Ireland’s most vital DIY outfits – Dublin lo-fi punk greats Sissy, post-punk trio Extravision, a vocalist with power pop band Music City – Arthur has long carved out a singular presence in the underground. Leigh Arthur’s newest project reveals a whole new dimension: radically vulnerability, outlined by heartache, yet glinting with joy. It is soft in texture, with contemplative vocals and bittersweet melodies. Arthur's debut EP is due for release in February 2026. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/the-monochrome-set-jamie-perrett-leigh-arthur-saturday-16th-may-the-lexington-london/200028934757344 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, pop - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 186 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: The Lexington, London, United Kingdom - **lat**: 51.52418 - **long**: -0.08747 - **full address**: The Lexington, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Monochrome Set + Jamie Perrett + Leigh Arthur, Saturday 16th May, The Lexington, London - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/1c98828002cededf6765b117e8b6f9ba90eb4b30ee43d0e469a168eabf65fc8c-rimg-w1200-h628-dcdcd7d5-gmir?v=1774779557 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Monochrome Set + Jamie Perrett + Leigh Arthur, Saturday 16th May, The Lexington, London being held? - **A:** The Monochrome Set + Jamie Perrett + Leigh Arthur, Saturday 16th May, The Lexington, London takes place on Sat, 16 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm to Sat, 16 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm at The Lexington, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Monochrome Set + Jamie Perrett + Leigh Arthur, Saturday 16th May, The Lexington, London? - **A:** The Monochrome Set + Jamie Perrett + Leigh Arthur, Saturday 16th May, The Lexington, London is organized by Bizarro Promotions. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
