British neo-prog rock
Jadis
Jadis is a British neo-progressive rock band formed in Southampton, England, in 1982. The band is known for its melodic, guitar-driven progressive rock, enriched by atmospheric and layered keyboards and led by the distinctive vocals and soaring guitar solos of frontman Gary Chandler.
During their early years, Jadis gained considerable attention within the progressive rock scene by touring as a support act for major names in the genre, including Marillion and IQ.
Jadis remain active and have maintained a strong connection with the Netherlands. In March 2026, they embarked on a mini-tour to celebrate the deluxe reissue of Across the Water, which included a show at Poppodium Boerderij in Zoetermeer.
Behind the scenes, the band is currently working on a brand-new studio album. They are also preparing for a major tour in 2027, celebrating the 35th anniversary of their debut album More Than Meets the Eye.
