The Soul Immigrants are one of London's longest-running funk outfits, originally formed by Emrys Baird & Nitin Sawhney. Live you can expect some exciting funk-filled, sassy grooves, heaps of audience participation, and phenomenal soloing. If you like your horn horny, your bass like Bootsy, and your guitar groovy, their show should be just the ticket for you!
They will be performing tracks from their latest album ‘Back From The Brink’ ( Lateralize Records) but also expect some tasty, yet radically different covers of James Brown , Bill Withers and The Neville Brothers.
Doors 7pm, Performance 8.30pm
