Living Body is a new project headed by Leeds-based Chicagoan Jeff T. Smith (f.k.a. Juffage), featuring longtime collaborators Katie Harkin (Sky Larkin, Sleater-Kinney, Courtney Barnett, Wild Beasts), Tom Evans (Vessels), Alice Rowan (Mayshe-Mayshe), Sarah Statham (Crake, Fig by Four, Esper Scout), James Yates (The Pattern Theory, Epic 45) and Jack Burgess-Hunt.

Following their evolution into a live band in summer 2016, the group has toured extensively throughout the UK, EU and North America, including performances at SXSW, Canadian Music Week, Tramlines, Sŵn, ArcTanGent, and Carefully Planned festivals, with sessions for BreakThru Radio and Daytrotter. Their debut LP ‘Body Is Working’ was received favourably by BrooklynVegan, Stereogum, Exclaim!, Drowned In Sound, the Skinny, God Is In The TV, and Louder Than War, with airplay on BBC 6 Music and Amazing Radio, among others.

Aside from a handful of shows late last year with seminal Chicago band Joan of Arc, this is the group's first live performances since late 2017. Also, this UK tour is a very special and rare occurrence for them; featuring percussionist James Yates, the group will be bringing DOUBLE DRUMKITS. Not to be missed!
