Event information
On Saturday October 18th we welcome the ace Strange Cargo to Jamboree as part of the Bloomsbury Festival!
Strange Cargo puts an African background to a British experience. Coming from the imagination of guitarist and singer Laurence Corns who was lucky enough to catch the tail end of Zimbabwean artists in London, touring with Chartwell Dutiro, Stella Chiweshe and The Bhundu Boys, the band are also influenced by the likes of The Stone Roses and The Happy Mondays.
With bassist Tom Mason, drummer Mez Clough and guitarist Al Cherry, a motley crew who've worked with artists as diverse as Goldie, Van Morrison and Wet, Wet, Wet, they are always humorous, infectious, audacious and yet totally self-effacing at the same time. Truly a Strange Cargo! This special night at Jamboree sees the launch of their new EP and will feature a mystery give away! "Modern folk songs of love, nostalgia and whimsey woven through hypnotic grooves".
