A Band Called Malice stands as the UK's most authentic and celebrated tribute to the iconic mod rock band The Jam. Formed by seasoned musician Andy Coultas, the band meticulously recreates the energy, precision, and passion of Paul Weller, Bruce Foxton, and Rick Buckler's legendary performances. Their name, inspired by The Jam's 1982 number-one hit "A Town Called Malice," reflects their dedication to honouring the band's enduring legacy.
With explosive live shows that transport audiences back to the heyday of mod revival, A Band Called Malice delivers a setlist spanning all six of The Jam’s studio albums, encompassing songs from all six studio albums released by The Jam during their 1977-1982 heyday . Their performances typically include:
· Iconic hits: "Town Called Malice," "Start," "Going Underground," "The Eton Rifles," "That's Entertainment"
· Fan favourites: "Down in the Tubestation at Midnight," "Art School," "The Modern World," "David Watts"
· Deeper cuts: B-sides and album tracks rarely performed by other tributes, their repertoire captures the raw power and social commentary that defined The Jam’s music.
The band’s attention to detail extends to their equipment and instrumentation, including identical reproductions of Paul Weller’s Rickenbacker guitars, their stage presence, and wardrobe, effectively transporting audiences back to the heyday of The Jam's popularity ensuring a sonically and visually authentic experience. ABCM is renowned for their authentic sound reproduction, described as "frighteningly realistic"
Their electrifying performances have earned them critical acclaim, including finalist status in the National Tribute Awards and the prestigious O2 Academy network tour for 2024–2026—a honour no other Jam tribute has achieved.
