Proof if ever it was needed that music and

politics can mix and not make toes curl, it is up to the locals to put on a truly culturally diverse show with this night of charged political polemic and celebratory sonic interludes. Speakers include Bianca Jagger but musically the minimal rock fusion of Zuba, the Latin stylings of Candido Fable, the quality global funk of the Ruffness (pictured) and the indie folk of Poor Old Ben will ensure a happy balance is struck between brow

beating and dancing.
