FEMUR have been on a rampage for the past few years; 2024 saw them break free from the grasp of the UK and spilling over into Europe for the first time, with sold out shows in Paris and beyond. So successful was this first international run of dates, FEMUR were invited to headline a Biarritz-based festival later in the year.
FEMUR also brought their trademark cocktail of garage-punk and psychedelia to a packed-to-the-rafters Jarred Up festival; sold-out back-to-back London dates; and appearances at a number of UK festivals.
2025 was yet another milestone year for FEMUR; tipped as ‘One-to-Watch’ by BBC Introducing Leeds & Sheffield; even headlining the BBC Introducing stage at Sheffield’s Rock & Roll Circus festival.
Festival season saw their first Glastonbury appearance, as well as an inaugural Tramlines main-stage slot alongside Fat White Family and Pulp. This all featured alongside their monstrous headline show at Sheffield’s prestigious Leadmill in February, and another European tour in April.
The is no sign of slowing down as 2026 kicks off with FEMUR’s biggest headline show to date at Crookes Social Club in April, part of their largest ever UK tour. The band are also confirmed to be setting the festival season alight; returning to Tramlines Festival in the summer, as well as End Of The Road Festival, Attitude Festival and more.
“This band are addictive. If you haven’t seen them yet, you need to see them, you must see them.”
