As well as Kristeen Young opening the London shows, Slim Jim Phantom, renowned for his expertise as the drummer of the Stray Cats, will be joining The Damned on the road for all other shows.

Formed in 1976, The Damned were the first British punk band to commercially release both a single and an album, as well as take their music Stateside, with their first US voyage taking place in 1977. They are the originators of the goth punk movement and have inspired a countless number of bands that have gone on to see huge global success.
