Jah Wobble & The Invaders Of The Heart

A concert by Jah Wobble and The Invaders Of The Heart, the project that blends dub, punk and global grooves, staged at The Jazz Cafe in London.

Jah Wobble is a British bassist and record producer, born in 1958, whose work falls within alternative rock. Wobble was a founding member of Public Image Ltd, and the bass lines on post-punk recordings such as 'Public Image'and 'Death Disco'are central to their sound. The debut album, V.I.E.P., appeared in 1980 on Island Records.

The Invaders Of The Heart, formed in 1982, carry this bass-led sound into a wider range of material. The music combines dub and punk with global grooves, including Middle Eastern melodies and heavy reworkings of film themes such as Get Carter. The project takes the reggae records of the bassist's East London youth as a starting point and develops a style of its own from them.

The Jazz Cafe is a London venue that mainly hosts concerts, with jazz at the heart of its musical offering. The evening will suit listeners who follow dub, post-punk and global grooves.
