• DAVID RODIGAN (Friendly Fire Sessions) @ The Hare & Hounds
  • 
    

    Friendly Fire Sessions, every third weekend of the month, is proud to team up with George Powell Ent. to bring you the legendary

    
    DAVID RODIGAN.

    
    David “Ram Jam” Rodigan is undoubtedly the most influential ambassador for reggae music in the UK since the early 70s, sharing his passion for Jamaican music to the masses on many London radio stations. He has since clashed and defeated  many established soundsystems such as Barry G and Stone Love amongst many others, and gained the status of legend and authority when it comes to reggae soundsystems.
    
    This is a very rare chance to see and hear David Rodigan for an exclusive intimate performance @ The Hare and Hounds, with support by Little Richie and residents Jam Jah Sound. There is a limited capacity to this venue, so please book early to avoid disappointment.
    
    

    9pm-3am - Tickets: £12 advance from:
