GRANDMASTER FLASH

(Walker Theatre, Shrewsbury, May 27)

The one and only Grandmaster Flash is coming to Shrewsbury. The innovator, the pioneer, one of the creators of Hip Hop music...

Demonstrating the original breaks, from the original 70s records, showing you the amazing history of Hip Hop, the places, the people, the breaks and techniques that started it all while cuttin' and scratchin' your favourite tunes on the turntables for one huge, live, interactive, visual Hip Hop block party…

The Hop Hop legend has long studied the styles and techniques of other and has been at the forefront of Djing techniques, while fans in Shrewsbury can expect to be treated to some of his best moves, and has also been a movie star too.

He has been on the music scene for the last four decades and remains as important today as he ever as, working and collaborating with new and up-and-coming artists.
