Chapterhouse are a British shoegaze band from the early 1990s, originally from Reading, England. Formed in 1987 by Andrew Sherriff and Stephen Patman, the band began performing alongside Spacemen 3. The band reunited for a few shows in 2008-2010 and again from 2026 onward. The band comprises Andrew Sherriff (guitar/vocals), Stephen Patman (guitar/vocals), Simon Rowe (guitar), Jon Curtis (bass) and Ashley Bates (drums). Chapterhouse took the unusual step of rehearsing and gigging for well over a year before recording even a demo tape.
