TICKETWEB FROM OUR FRIENDS... 1995 Camden Barfly / Thu 21 Mar Spearhead of a new French rap generation which knows draws from its roots whilst forging ahead, 1995 delivers their eagerly awaited first album "Paris Sud Minute" After two successful EPs and hundreds of shows, the group concentrated on the recording of their first long format. The result forces the respect and refocuses on the music. 1995 even goes beyond strictly hip hop limited territory : "Jet Lag" and the Japanese influenced production, "103" instrumental track blazing far further what we're used to in the rap game... Bottom line, we have a first album that should already be a classic. Catch their debut London show here at the Barfly! ticketweb Nik & Jay The Garage / Wed 3 Apr After more than a decade working the Danish music scene pop/hip-hop duo Nik & Jay set their sights on the UK. Undeniably catchy songs like "Hot!" and "I Love Ya" are brought to life through their compelling lyrics and heart-pounding beats which has seen them gain widespread popularity. Don't miss them live in London! ticketweb Shuggie Otis The Forum / Sat 11 May 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 floored Sly Stone, gave the Brothers Johnson their most enduring hit ("Strawberry Letter 23") and predated the stylistic synthesist Prince by half a decade. His music is passion personified and you would have to be deaf not to hear it. Do NOT miss this. ticketmaster MORE AT THE JAZZ CAFE The Narcicyst and Omar Offendum Mon 11 Feb ticketmaster   Foreign Beggars New date added to due phenomenal demand: Tue 12 Feb ticketmaster   Orelsan Tue 19 Feb ticketmaster Toploader Wed 20 Feb ticketmaster   Mamas Gun Sat 23 Feb ticketmaster   Beatie Wolfe & the Pack + Tallulah Rendall Sun 24 Feb ticketmaster Teedra Moses Fri 1, Sat 2 & Sun 3 Mar ticketmaster   Simon Says Thu 7 Mar ticketmaster   The Doggett Brothers Featuring Sulene Fleming Sat 9 Mar ticketmaster Roddy Woomble + Snowgoose Wed 13 Mar ticketmaster   Damage Fri 15 & Sat 16 Mar ticketmaster   Nicole Willis and the Soul Investigators Sun 17 Mar ticketmaster WIN TICKETS Win Win Win DJ Ali Shaheed Muhammad (A Tribe Called Quest) + EMILY RAWSON AND HOSTED BY BIG TED Fri 1 Feb Together with the two MCs Q-Tip and Phife Dawg, DJ and producer Ali Shaheed Muhammad is one third of A Tribe Called Quest, one of the best and most influential hip hop groups of all time.
