Overview
A concert pairing Aswad with The Real Thing and The Marley Experience, drawing on R&B, soul, funk, gospel and reggae, at O2 Academy Glasgow.
Roots & Soul with ASWAD brings together artists working across R&B, soul, funk, gospel and reggae. Aswad is a reggae band formed in London in 1975, and their best-known single, "Don't Turn Around", dates from 1988. The Real Thing is a Norwegian jazz band from Oslo, formed in 1992, whose first album, "Deluxe", was released in 2000 within the Norwegian jazz scene. The Marley Experience and the Roots & Soul strand complete the artists on the bill.
The evening combines reggae and soul rather than following a single genre, so it suits listeners who follow Aswad's reggae alongside the soul, funk and jazz-based material of the other acts. The concert takes place at O2 Academy Glasgow, a venue that mainly hosts concerts, with a programme centred on pop, rock and indie music.
