Suede

Chart-topping, award-winning rockers continue to stun audiences in 2024

From being named the Melody Maker’s Best New Band in Britain in 1992, Suede have certainly lived up to their potential. Making huge waves in the early days of their career after their debut album became the fastest-selling debut in almost ten years, and won the Mercury Prize, Suede were a key part of solidifying the Britpop movement.

Suede disbanded in 2003, hinting they would be back at some point after performing their last concert - a two-and-a-half-hour epic set - at Astoria in London. Seven years later, they reformed and have been performing and releasing records ever since, the most recent of which, Autofiction, was released in 2022 to positive reviews.

This summer, Suede will perform at Audley End as part of Heritage Live 2024.
