O akci

Nejznámější britská reggae kapela UB40, která v prodejnosti zvukových nosičů překonala i legendárního Boba Marley vystoupí poprvé na Moravě. Za více než 30 let existence kapely půjde teprve o jejich třetí vystoupení v ČR. Není snad člověk, který by neznal alespoň jednu jejich píseň z rádia, internetu či televize. Plníme tak slib, že dovezeme i letos do Buchlovic kapelu světového formátu.

UB40 are a British reggae/pop band formed in 1978 in Birmingham, England. The band has had more than 50 singles in the UK Singles Chart, and has also achieved considerable international success. They have been nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album four times, and in 1984 were nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Group. One of the world's best-selling music artists, UB40 have sold over 70 million records.

 

The ethnic makeup of the band's original line-up was diverse, with musicians of English, Scottish, Irish, Yemeni and Jamaican parentage. The band's line-up remained unchanged for 30 years, from its formation in 1978 until January 2008, when frontman Ali Campbell left the band; followed shortly thereafter by keyboardist Mickey Virtue. Another member, Astro, remained with the band until November 2013; when he departed the original band to team up with Campbell and Virtue in a new version of UB40. In 2014, legal advice was sought by the original band (now consisting of remaining co-founding members drummer Jimmy Brown, guitarist Robin Campbell, bassist Earl Falconer, percussionist Norman Hassan, and saxophonist Brian Travers, along with new vocalistDuncan Campbell) against the group containing Campbell, Virtue, and Astro over usage of the band name, due to it being used by both parties.
