Stiff Little Fingers at Roundhouse, Camden

Formed in Belfast in 1977 at the height of the punk explosion, Stiff Little Fingers channeled the urgency of their surroundings into searing, politically charged anthems like “Suspect Device” and “Wasted Life.” Championed by legendary BBC Radio 1 DJ John Peel, their seminal 1979 debut Inflammable Material made history as the first independent LP to break into the UK Top 20, paving the way for generations of punk and alternative acts from Green Day to Dropkick Murphys.

Half a century on, the band’s fire burns as bright as ever. Under the banner “GOLDFINGERS,” this golden anniversary tour celebrates five decades of uncompromising spirit, ten studio albums, and an unbreakable bond with their audience.

“I find it hard to believe that we’ve been doing this for fifty years. It seems like yesterday when we played the first show in a bar in East Belfast. It was exciting then and it’s exciting now. We cannot thank our audience enough for giving us all a career and hope we can keep ‘going for it’ for a few years yet… just not another fifty!”

— Jake Burns
