Supergrass

Supergrass, the British rock band formed in Oxford in the early 1990s, play a concert at the O2 Forum Kentish Town in London.

Supergrass emerged from Oxford in the early 1990s as part of the wave of British guitar bands that followed the Britpop boom. Their debut album, I Should Coco, appeared in 1995 and its single Alright became one of the best-known songs of the period. The group built a catalogue of fast, melodic guitar pop with a playful edge, and their later albums explored a broader range of sounds.

The band's music draws on the British guitar tradition of the 1960s and 1970s, with its brisk tempos, catchy hooks and sharp vocal harmonies. Their songs have remained a staple of British radio and of live sets that mix early singles with later material.

The O2 Forum Kentish Town is a London concert venue, and this evening suits listeners who know the band's records as well as those discovering them for the first time.
