Reeps One and Friends - Music Face Sessions

Event information

Leave what you think about beatboxing at the door. Reeps One is a vocal force; a walking, breathing sound system who can stand up to the highest energy DJs in the world. By the end of 2010 he was playing alongside Foreign Beggars, had just finished a UK tour with the Prodigy and won the UK Beatbox Championships twice in a row; all with a sound that truly makes people dance, without a loop pedal in sight.

With YouTube views in the multi-millions, Reeps One has generated widespread attention. He was recently invited by neurologists at UCL to have his brain scanned as part of a study on what changes in a person's mind when they become an expert at their skill, he was also invited by Steve Budd to participate in the Africa Express, a journey which took a collection of hand-picked musicians including Damon Albarn, Dead Prez and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin to six cities in six days.

Join Reeps One on a journey pushing the human voice to its limits. Music Face Sessions bring a refreshed approach to beatboxing showcasing collaborations with some of his favourite artists and an insight in to the story of why he became so consumed by this artform.

This event takes place in the Elgar Room and has unreserved cabaret-style seating.
