Chumbawamba take to the stage once more to celebrate the release of their new album ABCDEFG. The theme of the album is music - that volatile stuff which both the band and their audience have shared for as long as they can remember. Armed with acoustic guitars, accordion and trumpet, five-part harmonies, a bucketful of attitude, the band are touring to promote this gem

Roxanne Tataei brings conviction to your sound-system; A powerful voice on a stage with a tale or two to tell. Half Jamaican and half Iranian, at the tender old age of 21, her debut album entitled “Memoirs” is the fortuitous result of hard graft and a singular minded headspace.
Her shows and songs showcased both her musical ability and stagecraft and their popularity soon began to attract the attention of the A&R fraternity. This in turn led to offers from a number of labels but Rox was supremely attracted to a common approach to artistic freedoms and signed to Rough Trade. The process of recording her album Memoirs has involved all of her sonic influences and sessions on both sides of the musical pond. With New Jersey’s Commissioner Gordon (famed for his work with Lauryn Hill, Damian Marley and KRS One) at the desk, Rox held her own jamming with a team of accomplished veterans ‘Playing with guys who had recorded with the Skatalites and Bob Marley was a life changing experience’.
