Edinburgh Dub Club Presents an Historic Meeting
Two Sounds in the Arena

MIGHTY OAK SOUND
meets
COMMON UNITY SOUND
(Newcastle)

Edinburgh Dub Club returns to Dr Bells in Leith to present an historic meeting of two soundsystems. For the first time in Scotland, Newcastle's Common Unity Sound makes the journey north to join up with our own Mighty Oak crew for an evening of conscious dubwise, roots and reggae music presenting the spirit of Unity and Love. Top grade sound and vibes guaranteed!

Since starting up in 2014, Angus and Thomas of Common Unity have been working passionately to promote reggae music in the North East. The sound not only provides a platform for themselves to play, but also to expose the people of Newcastle to music and artists such as Kibir la Amlak, Ashanti Selah, with the latest sessions at the Newcastle Dub Club. Initial inspiration and schooling, from the late great Instrument of Jah Sound System plus regular rounds with sparring partner Ital Guidance over the years, Common Unity are ready and able to mash up any dancehall.

Mighty Oak need no introduction - Ben and Jofis return from their Borders hideout fresh from a triumphant 25th year anniversary session to nice up the dance once more with sweet and humble selection through the rumble and roar of their stunning soundsystem.
