Extc

A concert in Liverpool by EXTC, a band formed in 2019 by XTC's former drummer Terry Chambers, playing the group's classic songs at The Cavern Club.

EXTC was formed in 2019 by Terry Chambers, drummer of the group XTC, and the name was approved by XTC's frontman Andy Partridge. EXTC is a separate band rather than XTC itself, and its repertoire is built around the older XTC catalogue. XTC emerged from the post-punk and new-wave scene of the late 1970s and gained international attention by touring with The Police and Talking Heads. In 1982 the group stopped playing live and continued as a studio-based act.

On stage, EXTC perform classic XTC material, including Making Plans for Nigel, Senses Working Overtime, Mayor of Simpleton, Generals and Majors, Sgt. Rock (Is Going to Help Me) and Love on a Farmboy's Wages, along with many other songs from the same catalogue.

The concert is presented by AGMP Concerts and takes place at The Cavern Club, a Liverpool venue that also hosts exhibitions and cultural events. It suits listeners who want to hear XTC's songs performed live by one of the band's original members.
