Friday 10th February - Funky Kingston Exclusive DJ Set with Jerry Dammers at The Adelphi 8pm

Jerry Dammers, the founder of the 2-Tone record label, member of The Specials and writer of Free Nelson Mandela comes to Hull on Friday 10th February. In 1979, 2-Tone changed the world of music.

His visionary DJ sets are renowned - expect the finest in ska and reggae with occasional excursions into further flung sonic worlds.

Also appearing are Concrete Breaks, Hull's finest live funk outfit. Taking inspiration from The Meters, Bootsy Collins, Jimmy Smith and The Who, their instrumental sound is wild! Visit www.concretebreaks.com for further information. Funkywormhole Sound System will also be there. The only way to listen to reggae is at a sound system - (BBC guide to reggae). Show Starts at 8pm / £5 entry (£4 before 9pm) New Adelphi Club, 89 De Grey St, Hull 348216
