Another bumper line up of tropical rhythms and skanking global funk as The Fontanas join us to coincide with the release of their debut album 'Purple Patch' with a headline live show to whip up the crowd into a carnival frenzy with their brand of festival friendly Brazilian Funk and party vibes. London 9-piece The Big Steal are a mighty fine support with fresh originals & twisted Ska-Rocksteady ready to bring the house down. And to kick things off we're super excited to welcome beatbox musician extraordinaire David X who promises us a special afro-latin twist to the set complete with soulful songstress Noga Ritter. Whilst Movimientos DJs keep it jumping joining the dots between latin rhythms, global bass and tropical carnival sounds.
