A
gig
held at The Trinity Centre
on Friday 22nd November. The event starts at 20:00.
THE HANGING GARDENS AT TRINITY exclusively brings three top quality headline acts sharing a core Reggae-root heritage to Bristol's world-famous'CHURCH OF DUB'! This mini one-night indoor festival extravaganza is more than a mighty music show, it's a whole PERSIAN-THEMED DECADENT UTOPIA!
For one night only on Friday, 22nd November, The Trinity Centre will be transformed into Babylon's Hanging Garden, with sumptuous Persian d cor, statues and installations and a Floating Lotus Oasis Chill Cafe and Lounge serving festival chai, hot drinks, healthy smoothies and snacks.
The evening's entertainment comes from high-quality diverse cutting-edge Dubby-Dance giants GAUDI (Featuring Danny Ladwa) and Zion Train (returning to Bristol with their full live show)...potently combining forces with Bristol's homegrown D'n'B Jungalists, Run Tingz Cru...with support DJ's, walkabout circus and fire shows, magic and interactive, immersive experiences on offer this is a mini indoor one-night festival!
This is the first time that GAUDI, the world renowned and universally-acclaimed Ambassador of Dub, has played Bristol and he brings with him his incredibly able, willing and lyrikool MC, Danny Ladwa. Over the last few years, GAUDI & Danny (aka'The Dub Brothers') have played every main festival throughout the UK, Europe and indeed the world, filling festival and club dancefloors with their conscious and Bass-heavy genre-fusing adventures.
They mark their first ever Bristol live gig by unveiling top tunes from GAUDI's brand new album'In Between Times' and an excursion through his bass-loving back catalogue in this very special two hour set. 'Moreover, to mark the occasion with the respect it deserves, Danny and I will be unleashing some banging brand new tunes designed to raise the roof off Bristol's Church of Dub! You will feel the Bass and you'll feel the Love!' said GAUDI. 'We've never played Bristol before and this will be our only South West gig this year, so see ya there Dub'n'Basslovers!' he added.

Co-headlining this'Dub City Megagig', those unstoppable Dub & Dance pioneers ZION TRAIN return to Brizzle after a triumphant soundsystem set at Tokyo Dub last month, this time with their full live show featuring clever, conscious vocals from Dubdadda, Deckmaster Neil Perch at the controls and a full funky live brass section! This very special 90 minute live set is bound to get Trinity jumping...Zion Train are also showcasing a big bag of brand new tunes and this is a rare opportunity to see them play alongside GAUDI, the other undisputed Dub-Dance genre-defining guru!

Then local legends, RUN TINGZ CRU will take the decks and mics and will surely add another dimension again...Bristol needs little introduction and those who have seen Run Tingz will need little more encouragement to head to Trinity for this late night Mass! Run Tingz are currently riding high following a successful summer festival season and gigs all over the country...but you know they'll pull out all the stops to show they are happy to be'prodigal sons returning home with added gusto'!

This Holy Trinity of Headliners is topped and tailed with emerging talent and top tunes, first from General Mischief who will be launching Worldshift Media's latest multi media project, 'A Dubber World is Possible' featuring Bristol-based Mr Chuffed on decks and Bristol underground and festival legends, KP Kev the Poet and Craig Rainbow Ninja (Synchromystics / Operation Bless Everything / DuB ReVoluTioN!). Spinning the show to the end will be underground free party legend DJ aBOMBaNATION!
Throughout the night, expect from arrival to be immersed in a Babylonian-themed festival of merriment, music, circus and magic with stunning immersive visual arts, interactive walkabout performers, jugglers and fireshows from acts such as The Gutterstars Collective (many from Bristol), The Bristol Scrubbers, Fire Monkeez (from Wales and the West), the elusive MAJIK and a host of other local performers...You'll also see a range of on-stage supporting activities, including Bristol's finest belly dancer, Zooey Aleeza!
So for one night only, The Trinity Centre (itself a beautiful Grade 2 listed former church) will be transformed into a veritable'Hanging Gardens' complete with sculptures of Babylonian Gods, futuristic lighting and state-of-the-art mind-altering visual projections and lively light show, and the festival-favourite Floating Lotus Chai Cafe will offer a comfortable oasis of calm and serenity!
