Dub and reggae genius Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry is probably the most influential living reggae artist in history. He has produced big names such as Prince Buster, The Skatalites, I-Roy and U-Roy and prepared Bob Marley for international fame. Perry has worked with The Clash, Robert Palmer, Moby, Beastie Boys and Paul McCartney. His influence as a pioneer of dub (remixed and manipulated reggae) is immense. Without ‘Scratch’, hip hop and dance would sound completely different. A selection of some of his most renowned productions include: ‘Chase The Devil’ by Max Romeo, sampled by The Prodigy in ‘Out of Space’ and ‘Heart of the Congos’ by The Congos, often cited as one of the best reggae albums of all time.
At the beginning of his 75th year, Perry has gathered some of his finest colleagues who will pay tribute to his work, consisting of over 3000 songs. He will be joined by On-U Sound producer Adrian Sherwood, the magnificent Congos and Max Romeo – a living legend, so don’t miss this unique chance of seeing him live!
