John and Jehn perform in Manchester

7th Jul 2008

French duo John and Jehn are set to perform in Manchester later this month, as the pair celebrate the launch of their latest single 'Fear, Fear, Fear'.

Described by the Guardian as "terrifically bohemian" they will take to the stage at Manchester's Night and Day Cafe on July 16th, with other gigs lined up at venues including Liverpool's Club Evol and Barfly in Cardiff.

John and Jehn's debut album was widely acclaimed, with critics pointing to the influence of Joy Division, The Slits, Arcade Fire and The Fall.

"The two could come straight from a smoke-steeped film noir, like some rock'n'roll Bonnie & Clyde," NME noted.

Other acts set to play Manchester's Night and Day Cafe this month include The Quangos, The Deltics and Butcher the Bar.

Situated on Oldham street, the cafe is one of the city's most popular venues and offers live music most nights of the week.
