THE CHORDS UK

+ DEPARTMENT S

"Chris Pope is the best songwriter of his generation" - Paul Weller
The Chords UK are helmed by founding member and songwriter, Chris Pope, along with Mic Stoner, Kenny Cooper and Sandy Michie. Since 2013 The Chords UK have continued the legacy of Mod Revival heroes The Chords by performing all of the band's hits along with performing material from the two new albums by The Chords UK, "Take On Life" and "Nowhere Land".
Department S started out as Guns For Hire who released a solitary single, "I'm Gonna Rough My Girlfriends Boyfriend Up Tonight" in 1980. "Is Vic There?", the debut single from Department S, became a top 10 hit in the UK which was followed up quickly with the singles "Going Left Right" and "I Want" before the group dis-banded.

Description

The most celebrated live music venue in Europe and one of the most famous in the world. Our longevity is due to an open minded music policy which has seen many different musical styles performed at this venue over It's long history.

Live music began at 100 Oxford Street on 24th October 1942. It was first played at Mack's restaurant (as it was then known) when British jazz drummer Victor Feldman's father hired the venue on a regular Sunday night to showcase the talents of his jazz loving sons and their band. The band consisted of Victor and his two brothers Robert on clarinet and Monty on accordion. They were joined by legendary British saxophonist Jimmy Skidmore for the opening night.
