Strange Brew presents
Wally Badarou (live)
& ddwy (live)
& Andy Payback (dj)
Wally has worked with Grace Jones, James Brown, Black Uhuru, Tom Tom Club, Gwen Guthrie, The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Quincy Jones, Sly & Robbie, Robert Palmer, Fela Kuti, Manu Dibango and Marianne Faithfull, an honorary member of British jazz funk band Level 42 and author of some hugely influential solo records.
His personality is intrinsically part of ’80s music, his characterful keyboard runs and dreamy pads running like a flawless seam through many huge hits of the era. Whilst he never became a household name as a solo artist throughout the 80s-90s, Wally began garnering a higher profile in the 00s-10s with many tastemaker DJs and record labels shining a light on his incredible work which has stood the test of time insanely well.
On support: The incredible ddwy return with their dubby, psychedelic sound - a weightless mix of trip-hop, dub, house and left-field oddities. Plus Andy Payback on DJ duties with his unearthed slow jams of RnB and street-soul.
