THE STEVE IGNORANT band head out on the road for a series of live UK dates in the coming weeks, beginning this weekend with shows in Southampton, Birmingham and Derby, ahead of playing a set at Meff-Fest 2026 in Colchester in May.

Following several weeks of intense rehearsals, Ignorant promises that the band’s updated live set will include numbers from the Crass catalogue that he’s not previously performed with this line-up. “We’ve been working hard on some songs that we haven’t played live before,” he says. “So bring it on.”

Later in the year, the Steve Ignorant Band will play live shows in continental Europe ahead of additional gigs back in the UK, including at the 2026 Rebellion festival.

This autumn, Slice of Life will also be playing live shows in Stoke-on-Trent and Nottingham.
