Zeb Bias headlines Swing Ting at Soup Kitchen

It’s hard to believe that this will be Zed Bias’ Swing Ting debut given his extensive history of collaborations with resident MC Fox, but with the release of Fox, Samrai and Murlo’s collaboration Downtown/Uptown forthcoming on Zed’s Biasonic label, the timing is perfect. A prominent figure in UK dance music for many years, Zed Bias has managed to stay relevant and influential through multiple genre mutations. House, garage, broken beat, grime – all strings to Zed’s bow and it’s safe to say that Swing Ting’s openminded crowd will enable him to cover as many facets of his musical legacy as he desires. Resident duties are ably handled by Joey B, Samrai and Platt.
