Legendary reggae vocalist Horace Andy returns to Band On The Wall this June, backed by Dub Asante and the Matic Horns. Andy first emerged as a major force in reggae back in the 1970s, with hits such as You Are My Angel, Skylarking, Just Say Who, I’ve Got to Get Away and Something On My Mind now considered staples of the genre. Andy is seen as one of the all-time greats, with one of the most recognisable voices in Jamaican roots music, it’s this voice that has propelled him out of the reggae sphere, most notably through his collaborations with Massive Attack, starting back in 1990. Expect nothing but blissful vibes from the veteran, with support on the night courtesy of dub favourite DJ Mega Dread.
Thur 20 Jun, Band on the Wall, 25 Swan Street, M4 5JZ. Tel: 0161 834 1786, 7.30pm, £25, www.bandonthewall.org
