SOUL II SOUL (Soundsystem)
United Kingdom
British electro RnB pioneers Soul II Soul bring the ’80s and ’90s Back to Life as they meld together Philadelphia soul, disco, reggae and hip-hop in one butt-swinging live show.
The two-time Grammy award winning outfit led by DJ Jazzie B inspired the sounds of a decade when their first album Club Classics Vol. 1 hit the mainstream British dance scene. Their genre-leading releases were so well-received that they even sparked a new fashion movement – Funki Dred – which still sells well through Soul II Soul’s own clothing label. For this show DJ Jazzie B will be accompanied by one of the band’s most recognised collaborators, Caron Wheeler, whose powerful and versatile voice featured on some of the band’s biggest hits.
