Following the success of first Celebration of Jamaican Music night at the Globe we are starting our year on February 9th with more vintage reggae film clips and ultra rare 45's, which traces reggae's development - dancing compulsory!! This is followed by our monthly programme featuring the awesome Overproof Sound System, Cebille, Mor Karbasi and the Seckou Keita Quartet. All are making their first visits to Glossop.

The Lift Festival planning is now underway - it will take place July 11th - 13th so please note it in your diary and keep cheeking back for updates.

"Spine Tingling Gypsy Music"

Mor Karbasi is a virtuoso singer, songwriter, composer and arranger. She performs a wide variety of special musical styles. One of her main projects is Ladino music, also known as Judezmo, Spaniolit, or Sephardic- the ancient language and music of the exiled Jews of Spain.

Mor's heritage is mixed Moroccan and Persian, according to her Moroccan grandfather, "the blood remembers" meaning that before this, the ancestors came from Spain. Her connection to this culture is expressed passionately through her music.

Some of Mor's achievements so far are, a Ladino festival TV performance in Israel, several exceptionally well recieved concerts in the UK including London's Trafalgar Square open air stage (2006 and 2007) and many festivals (Womad Festival 2007 Charlton Park, Womad Festival in Las Palmas-Canary Islands 2007). She also makes guest appearances with other groups with compatible styles, music as a common language has always been a beautiful thing.
