It’s not about Brownswood and Gilles invading these places as the all-seeing, all-knowing London aficionados.”“This is about digging for the most exciting and innovative grass roots music creatives is some of the most overlooked cities, and uplifting them. Showing them that there is a community of music appreciators, a Future Bubblers family of like minds that is here to support and guide them.”The event starts at 6:30pm. There will be an introduction to the project followed by a Q&A from 7:30pm. Following the introductions there will live performances and DJ sets from: Three Body Trio:Classically trained Saxophonist, Peter Beardsworth leads this new, innovative free jazz meets electronic fusion project.
