Nizlopi return to Leamington to play live gig
Leamington folk hip-hop duo Nizlopi have announced their forthcoming gig at the Leamington Assembly as part of their first tour since reforming.
The underground, independent pair - widely known for topping the UK and Irish charts with The JCB Song in 2005 - are playing in their home town on November 19.
John Parker (double bass/beat box) and Luke Concannon (vocals/guitar) - both former Trinity School pupils - are regarded as having made folk hip-hop their own private genre and have worked with top industry professionals, including Phil Brown, who has produced for Bob Marley, and the British poet Benjamin Zephaniah.
The duo split up in 2011 but reformed at the beginning of this year. Tickets to the Assembly gig (£12) are now available, from www.leamingtonassembly.com
