The Rock for Refugees fundraiser takes over So Bar on November 20, kicking off at 5pm. Hip-hop, ska-punk band Smiling Ivy from Sheffield head the line-up with new single Full Moon on the setlist.
Bands playing at the charity gig include Chesterfield punk trio WORM, the Peak District’s folk-rock, blues-funk maestros Left Hand Drive, funk-blues outfit Blackfish and Long Eaton’s Dirty Scroungin’ B******* whose forte is socialist punk-blues, reggae-folk-hip-hop tunes.
Whiskey Bob Shaker, the master of bar-room ballads, Peak District poet extraordinaire Mark Gwynne Jones, singer-songwriter and creative artist Li Laurent, Liverpudlian singer-songwriter Ruby Sky and singer-storyteller Ayres will be among the soloists. Rock for Refugees is organised by Stand Up to Racism and Love Music Hate Racism.
The event is open to over 18s only.
