Rapid Eye Movement Tickets

Rapid Eye Movement emerged in the summer of 1980 in London, formed by Dave Stewart (Hatfield/National Health), Pip Pyle (drums), Rick Biddulph (bass), and Jakko Jakszyk (guitar and vocals). Known for blending Canterbury scene sensibilities with experimental and avant-garde tendencies, the group carved a distinct niche in early 1980s progressive rock. Although their initial run was brief, their live energy and inventive approach left a lasting impression on fans of the Canterbury circle.

While touring across Spain, France, and the UK from August 1980 through June 1981, Rapid Eye Movement captured performances that would later be documented on official releases. The project ultimately paused as Stewart redirected focus toward studio work, but the band’s legacy continues to be celebrated by fans and researchers of the era’s avant-progressive rock scene.

For fans seeking a tangible connection to the band’s 1980–1981 performances, the release Live In France 1980-1981 (Crimson Records, 2021) provides a documented snapshot of their live repertoire from that period.
