About this event

Formed in Leeds in 2006, Gentleman’s Dub Club (GDC) has spent two decades at the forefront of the UK’s dub and reggae landscape. What began as a eight-piece ensemble in a Headingley basement has evolved into an internationally touring outfit, recognized for a high-output studio discography and a live show that bridges the gap between traditional roots reggae and modern bass music. The band’s origins are rooted in sound system culture, specifically inspired by the Iration Steppas, and the long-running SubDub nights in Leeds. This foundational focus on low-end theory earned them early and sustained backing from the UK’s primary reggae tastemakers. Notably, the band has been consistently championed by David Rodigan MBE, who has labeled them "one of the most energetic and exciting live bands in the country." Their music has been a staple on BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra, receiving rotation from figures including Don Letts, Huw Stephens, and Mistajam. Since their debut EP Members Only (2009) and their breakthrough full-length FOURtyFOUR (2013), the Gents have maintained one of the most rigorous touring schedules in the industry. Their 20-year milestone follows performances at Glastonbury, Outlook Festival (Croatia), Boomtown Fair, Boardmasters, the West Coast America, India, Rototom, Summer Jam, to name a few. With eight studio albums to their name—primarily released through the influential Easy Star Records—the band enters 2026 with their core lineup largely intact, continuing to serve as a vital link between the heritage of UK dub and its future evolution. - Specific set times are only made available on the day of the event, please check the venue’s website page for the most up to date information. 14+, under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
