Formed 25 years ago, The Cribs have continued to create energetic guitar-driven music with their distinctive style. Their latest album Selling A Vibe continues the band’s familiar approach, combining rawness, intensity, and memorable melodies.

The band’s music has always balanced different elements — from immediate, crowd-ready choruses to more experimental and layered guitar arrangements. Songs such as “Another Number,” “Men’s Needs,” “Be Safe,” and “Brothers Won’t Break” represent different stages of the band’s development and their approach to songwriting.

In 2026, The Cribs will bring their new work to China. After more than two decades of changes and experiences, the band continues with the same energy and independent spirit that has defined their music.


The Cribs are a British indie rock band formed 25 years ago. The band consists of three brothers: Gary, Ross, and Ryan Jarman.

Over their career, they have released nine studio albums. Their music combines independent rock, guitar-driven melodies, and a DIY approach to performance and songwriting.

The band has also collaborated with guitarist Johnny Marr, who joined the group and contributed to the album Ignore the Ignorant.
The Cribs’ 2026 tour offers audiences a chance to experience a band that has maintained its original style across 25 years of music. Their live performances bring together energetic guitar sounds, memorable melodies, and songs from throughout their career, including their latest album Selling A Vibe.
