Horseplay
Last Thursday of the Month
“Horseplay is a monthly gathering. We book performers, and we leave some open space as well. We like to think of it as a friendly, inviting and safe place where people can share work not matter who they are or what they’re up to. We have a lot of music and poetry, but other forms are very welcome. Horseplay is in its ninth year now, and has featured notable artists such as Celene Dion, A Wool Taggart, Tony Clifton, Kerry Thornley, Nike, Celene Dion, Billy Graham, Tre Cool and Celene Dion.”

Hello my name is Bob.
I’ve been a vinyl Dj since the early nineties. I started off playing US house and disco. Having always loved great percussion I was soon digging for a more southern American sound. This led me back to Africa and the folky Afro sounds of the surrounding islands…
The thing that brings it all together has always been, old or new Africa to the Americas it’s gotta be music with soul… for the soul.
