Treacherous Cretins present? The Conceptual Continuity Tour - 60 Years of Frank Zappa
Event Type
Genre : Music - General
Description
2026 marks 60 years since the release of Frank?s debut album with The Mothers of Invention, Freak Out. In the 27-year-long career that followed, Frank?s prolific output totalled 62 albums, with dozens more released posthumously since his passing in 1993.
The Conceptual Continuity Tour promises to celebrate the depth and breadth of Frank?s vast body of work, with the Cretins crafting a setlist that will take the audience through every era of his sound - from the late 1960s psychedelic sound of the Mothers of Invention, through to the progressive, politically-charged songs from his final 1988 tour. Expect your favourite Zappa classics, with a generous helping of deep cuts - including tracks never before performed live: even by Zappa himself.
*Note* - unlike in previous years, Robert ?Bobby? Martin will NOT be performing with Treacherous Cretins, due to ill health.
Description
The Lexington is a classic London boozer turned lounge bar, with a hint of Kentucky charm and lashings of rock & roll excess. Enjoy award winning food served up with our favourite American craft beers or just lounge around in our baroque mezzanine exploring the best bourbon selection in London. If you like it a little bit louder, head upstairs for the latest and greatest bands in our live venue. Then dance the night away with our family of music loving DJs, playing everything from 20s jazz to the newest indie through the sea of counter-cultural sounds into the wee small hours.
The Lexington is an early Victorian building and as such is not easily accessible for anyone with limited mobility. While the main bar is on the ground floor and accessible without steps the music venue is up a flight of stairs. We’re happy to help with access where possible.
