The 1975 are an English pop rock band formed in Wilmslow, Cheshire in 2002.[1][2] The band consists of Matty Healy (lead vocals, guitar, primary songwriter), Adam Hann (lead guitar), Ross MacDonald (bass), and George Daniel (drums, primary producer).[3][4] The band's name was inspired by a page of scribblings found in Healy's preowned copy of On the Road by Jack Kerouac that was dated "1 June, The 1975".
The band members met in secondary school and first performed together as teenagers in 2002, before professionally releasing music in 2012 under the independent label Dirty Hit.[5] From 2012 to 2013, they opened for several major acts and released a series of extended plays—Facedown, Sex, Music for Cars, and IV—before releasing their UK chart-topping self-titled debut album (2013), which included the popular singles "Sex", "Chocolate", and "Robbers".
In 2002, at Wilmslow High School, Adam Hann who plays guitar, recruited Matty Healy to be the drummer of a band he was forming with Ross MacDonald who plays bass.[8][9] Hann wanted to form a band because a local council worker had begun organising gigs for teens, and wanted to play at one.[10] When the band's prospective singer, Elliot Williams, dropped out after one rehearsal, Healy took over the role playing double duty as lead vocalist and drummer.[11] He eventually relinquished playing drums to George Daniel, recalling that meeting Daniel "changed his life".[12] Daniel describes his first impression of Healy as "the most outwardly passionate person in school—endearing, and intimidating."[11] The quartet began as a band playing covers of punk and emo songs at school and at Healy's house before eventually writing their own music.[10]
To keep the band together, Hann, MacDonald, and Daniel all went to university in Manchester while Healy briefly attended music school.[13][14] They played gigs and recorded their own music while working as delivery boys at a local Chinese restaurant.[4]
By 2010, the band was being managed by Jamie Oborne but remained unsigned due to their genre-hopping approach, so he set up his own independent record label–Dirty Hit–and signed the band for 20 pounds.[15]
Before settling on The 1975, the band performed under multiple names including Me and You Versus Them, Those 1975s, Forever Drawing Six,[16] Talkhouse,[17] the Slowdown,[18] and Bigsleep.[19] They have been called Drive Like I Do[20] before renamed to the present band name in 2012.[21][22] Healy recounted that the final name was inspired by scribblings found on the back page of the book On the Road by Jack Kerouac.[3][23][24]
"I found a page of scribblings [on Jack Kerouac's On the Road]. It wasn't really disturbing or dark or anything...the important thing that stuck with me was that the page was dated '1st June, The 1975'. At the time I just thought that the word 'The' preceding a date was a strong use of language. I never thought it would be something that would later come to be so important. When it came to naming the band, it was perfect."
2012–2014: Early career and self-titled debut album
The band's self-titled debut album was recorded with Mike Crossey.[25] Between autumn 2012 and spring 2013, during which time the album was recorded, the band released four EPs. They toured to support and build momentum for the album, including numerous gigs and special appearances with other artists.

The album received positive reviews from critics, and topped the UK Albums Chart on 8 September.[26] As of March 2016, it had sold 410,981 copies in the UK,[27] and 390,000 copies in the US.[28] Critics at Pitchfork have favourably compared them to the Big Pink.[17]Sex EP was described by Paste as "equal parts ethereal and synth pop", with "haunting" and "smooth" vocals. Their "mellow", stripped down style was praised for its lack of "attention-grabbing production theatrics".[29][30]

The release of the band's first EP, titled Facedown, in August 2012 saw the band's first UK airplay on national radio with lead track "The City", which was also featured as part of a BBC Introducing show with Huw Stephens on BBC Radio 1.[31] The 1975 once again garnered national radio attention in late 2012, with BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe championing their single "Sex" from the eponymous EP, which was released on 19 November.[32] They embarked on a United Kingdom and Ireland tour extended into early 2013, before beginning a US tour in Spring 2014.[32] Upon the release of Music for Cars on 4 March 2013, the 1975 found mainstream chart success with "Chocolate", reaching number 19 in the UK Singles Chart. On 20 May 2013 the band released IV, which included a new version of "The City". The track charted in the UK and received airplay in several other countries.
In a feature article, Elliot Mitchell of When the Gramophone Rings wrote that releasing a string of EPs before the debut album was "a move that he deemed necessary to provide context to the band's broad sound, rather than just building up with singles alone." Healy said, "We wouldn't have been able to release the album without putting out the EP's first, as we wanted to make sure we could express ourselves properly before dropping this long, ambitious debut record on people."[36]

Their self-titled debut, The 1975, was released on 2 September 2013, co-produced by Mike Crossey, known for his work with Arctic Monkeys and Foals.[32] The 1975 were selling out shows even before the debut of their full-length album as Healy recalled in an interview with Larry Heath of The AU Review.[37] The lead single was a re-worked "Sex", which was released on 26 August 2013.[38] The song premiered on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show on 8 July 2013,[39] and a music video premiered on YouTube on 26 July. The 1975 debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart.
Public reaction to the band's music has been mixed, particularly on social media platforms like Twitter, "perhaps the last public space for unfettered music criticism in an increasingly anti-critical landscape", according to Vice magazine's Larry Fitzmaurice in 2016. In an essay on the critical response, he said they have been "the Most Hated and Loved Band in the World" and described "as underrated and overhyped, although the needle has far more often swung towards the former direction".[40] Veteran rock critic Robert Christgau said he thinks "they suck" and should not be called a "rock band" as they do not "rock".[41] In Fitzmaurice's opinion, the band's debut album was mainly a straightforward rock album recorded "with a soft-focus and especially British sensibility", while I Like It When You Sleep was only rock music in the loosest sense of the word. Overall, he said their music is pop "in the realm of Alternative", most comparable to INXS.[40] The 1975 toured in the UK in September 2013, among others performing in Kingston upon Hull as headliners at Freedom Festival, a celebration of the city's shortlisting for 2017 UK City of Culture designation,[42] and at iTunes Festival on 8 September as an opening act for indie electronic quartet Bastille.
The band undertook a North American tour in October 2013, a European tour for November, and in January 2014 the band performed in New Zealand and Australia.[43] In September 2013, the band performed three sold-out shows at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire.[44] In April 2014, the band performed for the first time in a major American music and arts festival: Coachella.[45] The band played at Royal Albert Hall the same month.[46] In May, the band's recorded output was distributed digitally while they were touring North America. Healy noted that the band had recording scheduled in Q2 2015.[47]
2015–2017: I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful yet So Unaware of It
On 1 June 2015, the band's social accounts were terminated, which caused intense speculation.[48] A comic strip was posted on Healy's Twitter a day prior but was later posted on their manager's (Jamie Oborne) account, which suggested the band's break-up.[49] The next day, the accounts were reinstated, but the cover images and profile photos were white and light pink, instead of the usual black and white, revealing it to be a publicity stunt.[50]

On 8 October, the band announced their second album, I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful yet So Unaware of It.[51][52] They premiered the lead single, "Love Me", simultaneously scheduling a support tour in Europe, North America, and Asia.[53] They premiered the second single, "UGH!", on 10 December on Beats 1.[54] The album's third single, "The Sound" debuted on BBC Radio 1 on 14 January 2016.[55] The 1975 released the fourth single "Somebody Else" on 15 February on Beats 1[56] before the album's release. "A Change of Heart" premiered on Radio 1 on 22 February, four days prior to the album's release.
NME, who had previously been highly critical of the band, praised the album for its scope and ambition, writing that "Any record that burrows as deep into your psyche as ‘I Like It…' should be considered essential. It's hugely clever and wryly funny, too." They later named it their Album of the Year for 2016.[57] Although music journalist Alexis Petridis noted that parts of the album were over-ambitious, he went on to claim that "incredibly, though, most of the time Healy gets away with it. That's sometimes because his observations are sharp — as a skewering of celebrity squad culture, 'you look famous, let's be friends / And portray we possess something important / And do the things we like' is pretty acute — but more usually because they come loaded with witty self-awareness and deprecation: the endless depictions of vacuous, coke-numbed girls he has met would get wearying were it not for the fact that he keeps turning the lyrical crosshair on himself." In a more mixed review, Rolling Stone criticised tracks like "Lostmyhead" and "Please Be Naked" for being "boring-melty" but praised songs such as "Somebody Else", "Loving Someone" and "Love Me".[58]
The album was released on 26 February and topped the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200.[6] The band released a free download for "How to Draw" on Twitter and through Target Exclusive.[59] It was shortlisted for the 2016 Mercury Music Prize[60] and nominated for Album of the Year at the 2017 Brit Awards.[61]

In November, Healy teased the release of an EP within 2017.[66] Besides being confirmed, the EP was delayed to 2018, with manager Jamie Oborne stating that "something" would be released instead; this was the band's debut live album, DH00278.[67] He also confirmed that no singles from Music for Cars will be released in 2017, with the band confirming that something will be released on 1 June 2018.[68][69] In March 2018, the band deleted many media posts across their accounts going back to July 2017, during their final show at Latitude Festival for I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful yet So Unaware of It.[70] On 22 April 2018, in response to a fan comment on Twitter, Oborne stated that their second album's campaign would remain for "a few more days".[71] At the end of April, cryptic posters titled "Music for Cars" appeared in London and Manchester, containing taglines and a Dirty Hit catalogue number, DH00327, amongst a black background.[72] Various billboards were also spotted in the United Kingdom, having used détournement to apply themselves over existing advertisements.[73] The band updated their website to display a timer counting down towards 1 June at the beginning of May 2018, becoming active again on social media.[74] Within its first hours, it was revealed to contain a hidden zip file with four individual posters, each of the names leading to a hidden page on the website that displayed a conversation between a 'human' and a 'machine'.[75] Over social media, the band frequently released different posters, all titled "A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships".[76][77] On 31 May 2018, the band released the single "Give Yourself a Try", after premiering as Annie Mac's "Hottest Record in the World" on BBC Radio 1 that same day.[78]

The album garnered almost universal praise from critics. According to review aggregator Metacritic, the album has received a weighted score of 83 based on 29 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[7] Ryan Dombal of Pitchfork gave the album a score of 8.5, earning it the Best New Music tag, and called it "outrageous and eclectic", as well as "similar to its predecessor in its boundless sense of style, swerving from Afrobeats to brushed-snare jazz balladry to one track that sounds like a trap remix of a Bon Iverayahuasca trip", but "more purposeful" than I Like It When You Sleep.[17]Time considered it one of the Best Albums of 2018, placing it at number nine on their list.[79]
However, Conrad Duncan writing for the same site gave the album a positive review, calling it "full of genuine heart, intelligence and wit".[80]Popmatters criticised the album as bloated and inconsistent, stating "The band's reach exceeds their grasp here, and vocalist/band leader Matt Healy's indulgences are often more tiresome than charming", while still praising it as "fascinating".[81] Healy, in an interview for Beats 1, said that "Music for Cars" is more of an era to release music, after renaming Music for Cars to A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships. It was released on 30 November 2018. The band headlined both Radio 1's Big Weekend in Stewart Park, Middlesbrough on 26 May 2019[82] and Reading and Leeds Festival in August 2019.[83]
On 24 July 2019, the opening song of Notes on a Conditional Form, titled "The 1975", was released, featuring climate activist Greta Thunberg, the proceeds of the song going to Extinction Rebellion.[86] The lead single, entitled "People" released on 22 August 2019.

A second single, titled "Frail State of Mind", was released on 24 October. The music video for the song was released on 30 November 2019. The next single, "Me & You Together Song", was released on 16 January 2020.

On 17 February 2020, the band put up a "digital detox" website called MindShowerAI which contained a countdown to their next single as well as several odd messages like “I am doing my mind and my life!” and “I feel comfort and respect."[87] A fourth single, ‘The Birthday Party’, was released on 19 February 2020 at the end of the website's countdown. On 3 April, the band released "Jesus Christ 2005 God Bless America", featuring guest vocals from Phoebe Bridgers, which was followed by "If You're Too Shy (Let Me Know)", featuring guest vocals by FKA Twigs, on 23 April 2020.[88][89]

The band was banned from performing in Malaysia due to "controversial conduct and remarks" during their performance at the Good Vibes Festival on 21 July 2023. This included a same-sex kiss onstage between Healy and MacDonald, and Healy openly criticising the country's strong anti-LGBT laws.[118][119] The remainder of the festival was then cancelled by local authorities.[119] Malaysian authorities forced the organisers to immediately halt and cancelled the rest of the three-day festival citing that Healy's "controversial conduct and remarks" are "against the traditions and values of the local culture".[120] Reactions to the incident from Malaysians on social media were generally critical of Healy.[121] Some members of the LGBT community in Malaysia were frustrated by the incident and expressed concern it would lead to further reprisals from the religious right.[122][121][123][124] The band subsequently cancelled shows in Taiwan and Indonesia following the incident.[122] The organisers of the festival sued the band in the High Court for breach of contract and sought £1.9 million in damages.[125]
In August 2023, they headlined Reading and Leeds Festivals for the third time with a "10th Anniversary Performance" of their self-titled debut album.[126] Their fifth concert tour commenced in September 2023 titled Still...

The 1975's influence in the indie pop scene has been termed "Healywave" by NME.[175] Described as "deftly plucked, palm-muted guitar line, hop, skip and jumping its way across shimmering pop synth work and third-wave emo lyricism," The Big Issue added that it's a "dreamified take on Eighties pop-rock".[176] "Healywave" acts named by the NME include Pale Waves, Fickle Friends, and the Aces among others.
