Herbaliser Take London (Again)

If you’ve ever had even a loose association with UK hip-hop in the past 20 years there are a few names you will no doubt have come into contact with; names like Roots Manuva, Ninja Tune or Phi Life Cypher to name but three. Another name that regularly intersects with all of the aforementioned is The Herbaliser. If you are not familiar with one of the nation’s original and finest live instrumentation hip-hop groups fear not, for they are breezing back into town on Saturday 27th October to play a show at the HMV Forum in London to celebrate the release of their brand spanking new, self released LP There Were Seven.

Both super early bird and early bird tickets have already sold out so I’m sure it doesn’t take a genius to tell you it’s probably wise you pop over to the Soundcrash website as fast as your dainty digits can metaphorically carry you and grab a ticket before they all go. With support coming in the form of soulful turntablists Bellaruche, Ninja Tune stalwart DJ Food with a sumptuous audio/visual show, as rare as Elbow releasing a cheerful record appearance from Parisian resident DJ Cam and the ever reliable Soundcrash DJs you really owe yourself a visit to the capital.
