Tickets are on sale at the Brewery Tap for Gabbidon and The Gangsters – an event which promises hours of excellent entertainment.

It's possible to buy them for £5 up until 10pm on Saturday, 27 September, when the price then goes up to £7.

Gabbidon is the brainchild of the talented lead guitarist Basil Gabbidon, a founding member of '70s reggae legends Steel Pulse.

He has brought together an eclectic grouping of musicians hell bent on providing the audience with a good time with their fusion of reggae, rock, ska and jazz styles meshed along with catchy rhythms and soulful harmonies.

Gabbidon have appeared in various guises over the last few years, as Gabbidon Worldwide, or Gabbidon International or just plain Gabbidon, with irregular gigs taking place in clubs and venues across the Midlands and at festivals such as Reggae Rockz, Black History Month and Making Friends With Music.

Basil has also spent a lot of his time making real efforts to encourage the youth of Birmingham to enjoy and participate in music through a series of community music programmes.

He said: "There are other ways to keep music alive apart from constant gigging and replaying your old stuff. I'm now trying to put back what I got out of it – to try to motivate local people and promote music to the youngsters in schools in particular.

"I will never stop making music. I'm enjoying it more now and over the last few years.

"The energy is back. I can play any music I want to, not just reggae. My confidence is bubbling again."

As well as originals, Gabbidon play covers, including Bob Marley and Burning Spear.
