About Everything Everything

Since their emergence in the late 2000s, Everything Everything have carved a unique and indispensable niche in the British music landscape. Hailing from Manchester, the quartet – comprising vocalist and guitarist Jonathan Higgs, bassist Jeremy Pritchard, drummer Michael Spearman, and guitarist Alex Robertshaw – quickly established themselves as a band unafraid to traverse unconventional sonic territories. Their debut album, “Man Alive” (2010), garnered critical acclaim for its audacious blend of art-rock, indie pop, and experimental electronica, featuring the now-classic singles “My Kz, Ur Bf” and “Suffragette Suffragette.”

Their sophomore effort, “Arc” (2013), delved deeper into atmospheric soundscapes and more introspective lyrical themes, producing the fan favourite “Cough Cure.” The band continued to refine their distinctive sound with “Get to Heaven” (2015), an album that saw them grappling with societal anxieties and political unrest, resulting in anthems like “Distant Past” and the searingly urgent “Regret.” “A Fever Dream” (2017) saw them at their most urgent and politically charged, with tracks like “Can’t Ignore the Thrill” and “Ivory Tower” showcasing their ability to tackle complex issues with melodic urgency.

Most recently, “Re-Animator” (2020) marked a bold evolution, embracing a more electronic and propulsive sound while retaining their signature lyrical intelligence. This period also saw the band release the standalone single “Mercury and Me,” a poignant exploration of love and loss.
