Shallow Roots at The Grain Barge
£6

A gig held at The Grain Barge on Friday 1st December. The event starts at 20:00.


Shallow Roots are a Bristol-based band playing (mostly) dance music fusing Afro, Caribbean, Spanish, Latin and Western pop. The combination of horns and guitars make a great sound. The music is intimate and gentle yet also rhythmic and highly danceable, while the (mostly) self-penned lyrics have a political edge - an uplifting take on the wider world and a realistic look nearer home. The players are Rob Vasey (guitar, vocals), Jonathan Hyams (guitar, vocals), Romilly Gibbs (soprano sax), Jamie Darwen (tenor and soprano saxes), Carol Arnold (alto sax), Tina Holmes (bass) and Jeremy Arnold (drums and percussion). The amazing voice of Rosalind Moreno-Parra can be heard as principal vocalist on some of the songs. Come and enjoy the party!
