Talk of the town, music – Paul Weller live at the O2 Arena, Greenwich

Last year marked the 40th anniversary of Paul Weller’s first album, In The City, which he released with The Jam in May 1977.

For most artists such a landmark would be greeted with extensive retrospective celebrations: lavish reissues and all that jazz. But Paul Weller is not like most artists, instead releasing anew studio album, because releasing new albums is what Paul Weller does. Always moving forward, almost clinically averse to nostalgia or checking his progress in the rear-view mirror. And so, continuing his never-ending creative peak, Paul Weller released his eagerly awaited 13th studio album A Kind Revolution to critical acclaim.

The album will be followed with a UK Arena tour in 2018, which will hit The O2 on Saturday. Supporting the upcoming tour will be Irish four-piece The Strypes.

Event: The O2 Arena, 6:30pm Saturday 3 Mar 2018
