Get ready to rocksteady with Gary Crosby’s sensational Jazz Jamaica All Stars with special guests Brinsley FordeNoel McKoy and rising vocal stars Dem 3 in The Trojan Story - a live music extravaganza celebrating the legendary label and artists of Trojan Records.

Established in 1968, the London - based label was the first to distribute the music of Jamaica on a grand scale, becoming for many in the UK the first point of contact with Jamaican music and culture and offering a meeting place for young people to celebrate in sound what unites rather than divides us. 

 

This stellar orchestra of 22 acclaimed and rising stars features award-winning saxophonists Denys Baptiste and Camilla George joined by members of hip jazz strings quartet Tomorrow’s Warriors’ StringTing

 

The Trojan Story features many of the best-loved anthems from the label,  including Desmond Dekker’s hit Israelites, Tony Tribe’s classic Red Red Wine and Harry J All Stars’ The Liquidator, specially arranged by Jason Yarde.

Jazz Jamaica All-Stars will be joined by the spectacular new THSH Reggae Choir with an opening set from Birmingham’s own Notebenders
