Jammshed and Detroit Tourist Board Share an Original-Music Bill at The Globe

Jammshed and Detroit Tourist Board share the bill at The Globe in Newcastle on Thursday 22 October 2026. The two North East groups are booked for an evening beginning at 7.30pm, with advance tickets at £7, £10 on the door and a £5 concession rate. Rather than a tribute concert or a themed club night, this is an opportunity to hear original material from two bands with different approaches to songwriting and instrumental arrangements.

Jammshed make music that moves between blues, folk and influences from further afield. Their recorded work uses a broad palette of instruments: the credits for Displaced include Mike Soanes on vocals and a range of guitars and folk instruments, alongside Jayne Sewell’s vocals and woodwinds, keyboards, cello, brass, bass and percussion from other band members. That gives an indication of the group’s musical scope, although the exact instruments and players appearing at The Globe have not been separately confirmed for this gig. The band’s own description emphasises original writing rather than covers.

Detroit Tourist Board are a Newcastle indie-folk and indie-pop act whose catalogue includes the album 1985 and the earlier Heart on a String. Songwriter Patrick Lawrence’s work has drawn on ukulele, guitars, violin and folk-pop arrangements, as reflected in the band’s recording credits. The music takes a different route from Jammshed’s larger instrumental palette, making the pairing an interesting one for listeners who enjoy melodic songs but want to hear contrasting bands in the same evening.

The Globe has not published a confirmed stage order, individual set lengths or an album-launch announcement for either group on 22 October. The 7.30pm event time is therefore the sensible point to plan around if you want to catch both performances. It is also worth noting that another concert is advertised at The Globe on the same evening: the Olly Styles Trio’s jazz date is a separate listing with its own ticket arrangements, not an additional act on the Jammshed and Detroit Tourist Board bill.

The venue uses unreserved seating and holds ticket-holders’ names at the door instead of posting physical tickets.
