Irie Vibes: Reddread
Next up we have one of the original Roots and dancehall DJs of York making his return. REDDREAD is the founder of one of the first roots and dub events in the city: Lion Paw; inspiring a scene of selectors, skankers and bass heads that continues to this day. Now living in Barcelona it is rare to see him in the shires so this will be a very special treat for all of us!
Martin Simpson – *At The NCEM, York*
The remarkable intimate solo performances Martin gives go from strength to strength – every gig is a masterclass. He travels the length and breadth of the UK and beyond, giving rapt audiences passion, sorrow, love, beauty, tragedy and majesty through his playing.
HOUSE Of ALL + Percy
HOUSE Of ALL appeared unexpectedly, but not without a stellar legacy. Five former members of The Fall gathered, led by original guitarist and force behind Blue Orchids, Martin Bramah, along with Paul and Steve Hanley, Simon Wolstencroft and Pete Greenway to record a left-field hit earlier this year, followed by a Marc Riley session, a six-date tour (with Phil Lewis filling in for Pete temporarily), and a second LP already recorded.
