With support from legendary Grammy-Award-winning Atlanta rapper Killer Mike, Mercury Prize-nominated Irish folk band Lankum, actress and singer-songwriter Sam Morton, and Wild Bunch pioneer, DJ MILO, as well as a programme of guest speakers throughout the day, this looks all set to be a very special event.

3.15 PM – 4 PM | Sam Morton

 

4.40 PM – 5.40 PM | Lankum

 

 

6.25 PM – 7.25 PM | Killer Mike

This event promises to be the lowest carbon show of its size ever staged and is the first physical fruition of Massive Attack’s collaboration with climate scientists and analysts from the Tyndall Centre for Climate Research.

 

On top of the stacked musical line-up, this special event also has a dedicated talk area in partnership with Novara Media, featuring panel discussions and guest speakers. Attendees will also be able to purchase limited edition signed, hand-finished prints and t-shirts, with all profits going to Doctors Without Borders.
