Gilles Peterson presents Independent Venue Tour feat Oreglo - Fri 31st Jan
Gilles Peterson founded We Out Here Festival, the influential labels Acid Jazz, Talkin' Loud and started his current label Brownswood Recordings in 2006. His radio shows are the foundation of so many of our musical journeys, introducing us to new and interesting styles of music. We are honoured Gilles is coming to play some music for us.
Small independent venues are the lifeblood of the British music industry both as places where artists, bands and DJ’s can develop their craft but also as places where audiences can discover and develop musical bonds that can last a lifetime. As part of a wider effort to shine a light on this vital part of our cultural landscape and celebrate it in all its diverse musical glory, Gilles Peterson is going on the road for the first instalment of his Independent Venue Tour. On these dates he will accompanied by young, upcoming band Oreglo and local DJs coming through.
