The Chameleons Website
THE CHAMELEONS.........were an atmospheric post/punk band formed in Manchester UK in 1981 around vocalist/bassist Mark Burgess. Their sound reminicent of say early U2, with delightful chiming echo drenched guitars. Where as Bono and the boys went on to be rock superstars.....The Chameleons didnt get their rewards and to this day remain as a highly acclaimed "cult" band.
After several radio sessions tor BBCRadio 1s Dj John Peel they released some great albums . Then like so many bands broke up without hitting their potential.A decade later they reformed to play a series of live dates and an album in 2001.
In 2009 to present they are back ! Burgess and original drummer John Lever have reformed to play CHAMELEONS back catalogue under the name CHAMELEONS VOX. This is a band I hope to see in May.....i better get a ticket because I know that they will sell out
