For fans old and new, these nights promise something truly special. The Alarm 2.0 brings together founder member and co-songwriter Eddie MacDonald, whose voice and vision helped define the band’s original spirit, alongside an exceptional lineup of musicians who each carry a deep connection to The Alarm’s legacy.

On lead guitar is James Stevenson, renowned for his fiery, melodic playing and decades of experience at the heart of British rock. Holding down the rhythm with trademark power and precision is Steve “Smiley” Barnard, a drummer whose energy and musical instinct have driven countless unforgettable performances. Adding an extra spark to these already historic evenings is special guest lead singer Matt Peach, whose passion and dynamic stage presence are driving a high-energy celebration of The Alarm’s music.

Playing two sold-out nights at The Lexington is no small achievement, and the band couldn’t be more thrilled.
