THIS WEEKS FEATURED GIGS...New Year's Eve // Jon B // Jesse Boykins III & MeLo-X // Ernest Ranglin, Sly & Robbie plus much more...

JUST ANNOUNCED Shuggie Otis + Marcus Bonfanti Tue 20 & Wed 21 Nov Debut London show for genius 70's multi-instrumentalist Compared with Hendrix and BB King at the age of 15, Shuggie's stand out works are the two expansive, genre-defying, deeply curious albums, 1971's Freedom Flight and 1974's Inspiration Information. The records, essentially crafted as a one- man band, floored Sly Stone, gave the Brothers Johnson their most enduring hit (Strawberry Letter 23) and predated the stylistic synthesist Prince by half a decade. Don't miss this debut London show from the genius multi-instrumentalist. ticketmaster THIS WEEK Inspectah Deck + Colt Seavers and DJ Timmi Handtrix Mon 8 Oct Held in high regard by fans of the Wu-Tang legacy for his show stealing displays of high intensity and ear-worm lyricism, Deck AKA The Rebel Inspectah has a place in hip hop history cemented.
