Speedway
Scottish pop band
Speedway is a Scottish pop rock band, formed in 2001 by Jill Jackson and Jim Duguid in Glasgow. Notable for their dynamic sound and heartfelt songwriting, Speedway expanded quickly, bringing in Tom Swann on bass, Dan Sells on guitar (who later fronted The Feeling), and Carlos Garcia of The Crave. Their style reflects the vibrant pop-rock landscape of early 2000s Britain, and they signed with Innocent Records in 2002.
The band's discography includes the well-received album "Save Yourself," released in 2004, as well as singles like "Genie in a Bottle" and "Can't Turn Back." Their catalogue also features standout tracks such as "All That Matters" and "1-2-3-4," underlining Speedway's knack for catchy hooks and energetic arrangements. Although their official tenure concluded in 2004, their songs continue to resonate with enthusiasts of British pop and rock music.
In April 2026, Speedway is set to appear as a support act for The Jackets at Paper Dress Vintage in Hackney, London, as part of the le beat bespoke event. For discerning fans keen to experience live music and discover more about Speedway’s ongoing influence, be sure to follow the band and keep an eye on their concert listings and upcoming gigs.
