2015 marks the Diamond Jubilee of the UK sound system phenomenon and this October, Punch Records present a tour to celebrate this momentous milestone.
This five date, UK-wide event pairs one of the UK’s best known, foundational reggae sound systems, Channel One, with legendary producer and artist Mad Professor, whose music was created specifically to be played through sound systems.
This tour will join the dots between some of the country’s most storied musical cites. It starts on October 16th in Birmingham with BASS at The Rainbow, a modern home for rich sound system culture, as well as being the birthplace of Punch. From there, the tour heads to Village Underground in London on October 18th, where Channel One have made their indelible mark with their regular sunday parties.
