Fri 22 Sep 19:30pm
A night of Soul, Funk & Hip Hop with Oak Royale and Arch 57 playing live alongside legendary Breakin’ Bread DJs’ till late!
OAK ROYALE
A 7-piece soul, funk and disco outfit front by soul diva Moll Traser with a reputation for explosive live performances. Combining original jams with covers that nod towards the rarer side of 70s psychedelic soul and funk, Oak Royale’s mission is to work the dancefloor into a cold sweat.
ARCH 57
Arch 57 is an over-sized funk orchestra, doubtlessly the funkiest football team-sized band currently rocking the London circuit. Playing deep funk classics from the likes of Lyn Collins to The Whatnauts, it’s as if a crate-digger started a funk band.
BREAKIN’ BREAD DJs
A soul, funk and hip hop collective which has been running for 25 years putting on club nights, releasing records and broadcasting radio shows.
The club moved through various venues most notably Jax in London Bridge, the Rhythm Factory in Whitechapel and the Jazz Cafe in Camden. BB’s dancefloor-friendly mix of soul, funk, hip hop, disco and anything related drew the cream of the UKs breakdance scene and some legendary battles were held at the night. The crew now run local nights in West London and guest spots worldwide.
The record label started putting out 7″ 45’s at the start of the soul funk revival in the late 90’s and now have 90+ releases to their name.
