Born in 1970s Leeds, the Mekons are a defiant art collective. This year, the Mekons tour hits the United States to promote their new album, Horror. This Fire Records release explores imperial legacies via their unique "horror-folk" style.
Starting May 31, 2026, in Evanston, the lineup features Jon Langford, Sally Timms, Tom Greenhalgh, Susie Honeyman, Rico Bell, Lu Edmonds, Steve Goulding, and Dave Trumfio. Joining the Mekons are The Sadies. Stops include Baltimore, New York, and Cambridge. Separately, catch the Mini-Mekons featuring Sally Timms & Jon Langford at the Solid Sound Festival.
The Evanston show includes a mekonic disco after-party. Don't miss these legends. Check local listings to grab your tickets today.
