About The 1975

The 1975, hailing from Wilmslow, Cheshire, are an English pop rock band that have carved out a unique space in the music scene since their formation in 2002. Comprising Matty Healy, Adam Hann, Ross MacDonald, and George Daniel, the band's name is inspired by a mysterious note found in a used copy of Jack Kerouac's "On the Road." Known for their distinctive aesthetic and ardent songwriting, The 1975 excel at capturing the essence of youth and the raw emotions of being a teenager. Their music is a blend of various influences, as seen in frontman Matty Healy's diverse list of favorite albums, which includes releases from Bob Dylan to Sigur Rós. With a sold-out performance at Madison Square Garden and a headline slot at Glastonbury Festival, The 1975 continue to make waves and solidify their status as one of the defining bands of their generation. Their latest album, "Being Funny in a Foreign Language," is set to release on October 14th, offering fans another opportunity to immerse themselves in the band's signature sound and introspective lyrics.
