Lead singer Jimmy said of the show (via Swindon Advertiser): One Faith Festival will see Sham perform once again at the MECA which was played host to one of their most memorable shows of 2016 and in recent memory. Already announced for the event are Criminal Mind, Mick O'Toole, Dirt Royal, Rotten Foxes, Disruptive Influence, Hazard, Face Up and Delinquents with more to yet be announced. The one day event, with a lineup that has been curated by Sham themselves, will go ahead on May 20th and is set to feature an exciting mix of both established and new talent. But one date which caught Gi's attention, and undoubtedly that of punk fans as well as Sham's ardent fanbase is the recently announced One Faith Punk Festival taking place at the Swindon MECA.

Throughout Sham's return to the live scene the band have found themselves performing at various festivals in the UK and this year they'll be headlining events in Spain and Germany. The musical landscape has changed dramatically since Sham first began 40 years ago whether it be in the way music is consumed with regards to digital or in the volume of music festivals which take place each and every year all over the world.

After a run of shows in 2016 which saw original members Jimmy Pursey, Dave Parsons and Dave Tregunna performing together again, the trio are looking forward to another busy year this year. Punk icons Sham 69 are in the midst of hugely successful comeback.
