Spitalfield is an American rock band from Chicago, Illinois signed to Victory Records. Formed in 1998, Spitalfield caught the attention of Victory Records with their 2002 release The Cloak And Dagger Club EP and a year later released their follow-up, Remember Right Now. The band sold over 130,000 records and performed in nine countries over three continents before disbanding at the end of 2007. The band has reformed for shows numerous times, most recently in 2022.
Spitalfield derived their band name from Spitalfields, a section of London's East End where Jack the Ripper operated. The band announced their breakup and subsequent goodbye tour on September 10, 2007.
Since the breakup, lead vocalist Mark Rose has pursued a solo singer/songwriter career.
The band played a secret show on October 6, 2012 at Santos Party House in New York City, under the name The Cloak & Dagger Club (the name of the band's first EP).[2]
