Plantfood are a blood-pumping jazz force summoning an onslaught of electronic and acoustic sounds with influences ranging from heavy hitters like The Prodigy to the spiritual explorations of John Coltrane. The 6-piece collective guides audiences through the extremes of the mosh pit to serene meditations. Forming within and coming up through the inspiring Leeds Jazz scene, Plantfood have quickly become a defining sound in the community.“Powerful as ever” - Jess Iszatt, BBC Radio 1.

As featured on their debut album Carnivores, English-Palestinian rapper Yung Yusuf weaves topics of fear, identity and vulnerability into the music with a demanding and powerful energy. Touring across the UK with sellout headline shows in London, Leeds, York, Falmouth, Todmorden and Hebden Bridge, Plantfood and Yung Yusuf have reached new sonic horizons, fusing Punk, Jazz and Electronica in bold and explosive arrangements. Alongside this, they have supported many establishe artists such as Nubiyan Twist, Dele Sosimi and BCUC.
