DJ Derek’s penultimate appearance in Oxford before he retires!
DJ Derek: Soon to sadly hang up his minidiscs (at the grand old age of 72), Bristol Sound grandaddy DJ Derek’s reggae, dancehall and soul selections remain as popular as ever. Over the years Derek has rocked audiences all over the UK, Europe and as far away as Sydney, Melbourne and Singapore. A much-loved figure in the music industry, and an icon in his native St Pauls, DJ Derek’s appearances in Oxford are always sell-outs.
Jewels & The Jacuzzis: The first Oxford outing in quite some time for Jewels & The Jacuzzis, who have supported The Wailers, Mad Professor and Dreadzone. Back after a three-year hiatus that saw singer/songwriter Jewels become a mum for the first time, expect to hear sultry, soulful, mesmerising roots reggae.
Count Skylarkin: The Count has worked with a host of legendary acts in the world of reggae (The Skatalites, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, Toots & The Maytals, Alton Ellis, Max Romeo, Dawn Penn, Horace Andy and The Wailers (UK tour DJ) to name but a few) in a DJing career spanning more than 15 years.
