About

A L P H A B E T presents SNAZZBACK ft. Rider Shafique + Support

“Snazzback...Great! There’s been so much talk about the London jazz scene but there’s ALOT going on in Bristol”- Gilles Peterson

Snazzback's seven-sided dance dynamism folds together UK jazz and broken beats with dub flourishes. With recent performances at Glastonbury festival, Ronnie Scott’s and beyond.

Informed by a love of UK dance music, driving dubstep sounds of DMZ and breaks inspired by the sounds of Source Direct, exploring them with a joyous freedom that leans more on the likes of Miles Davis and the late Pharaoh Sanders.

For this show they are joined by prolific MC and poet, Rider Shafique giving voice to the music in his own rooted, low-key style that melds classic dub poetry and spoken word seamlessly.
