Subculture Tour 2015

2-tone legends The Selecter head back out on the road throughout February and March to celebrate 5 years since their reunion and to support the release of their brand new album 'Subculture', released in Spring 2015

During the past half-decade, The Selecter, led by their legendary frontwoman Pauline Black, have become increasingly aware that their championing of 2-tone/ska music is firmly rooted outside of today's mainstream genres (indeed, Ska doesn't even exist as a music category on iTunes).

Pauline Black says, "We are great believers in calling things 'as we see them'. We realise that Ska/2-tone was, and still is an umbrella for many subcultures. This feeling of inclusivity is reflected in 'Subculture', which seeks to celebrate our diverse musical influences - from Soca & Calypso, to Reggae, to Electronica - and reflect the concerns and tastes of the subcultures that readily embrace them. We deliver songs that are unafraid to discuss the current situation in the Middle East, the intricacies of sexual politics, or the violence of social unrest."

The Selecter will be joined by The Tuts on all dates.
