Description

Here we go with our first ever New Year's Eve party at our new home in King's Cross, featuring brilliant samba / Baiao act Big Ben Jorge, bellydance ace Rachael Redfern, global beats DJ Russ Jones (aka The Hackney Globetrotter) and more! We hope you can join us.

Having drawn members from bands including Electric Jalaba, Teotima, Cocos Lovers, Haraket and Flying Ibex, Big Ben Jorge springs from a love of Brazilian pop music. With influences ranging from Samba to Northeastern and Baiao styles, this diverse gathering of musicians found common ground in the toothsome grooves and nimble melodies of the Brazilian chart music of the 70's and 80's. Particularly, of course, that of Brazilian pop legend Jorge Ben Jor, BBJ's namesake.

They pay heady homage to these artists, and the result is explosive and gripping to see live. Believe it - Big Ben Jorge are fun.


Rachael Redfern is a London-based fusion bellydancer known for her precise technique, captivating stage presence and elegant presentation with dark vintage style.

DJ Russ Jones (aka The Hackney Globetrotter) is one of the leading lights of the ever growing international 'global beats' music scene playing a world beat mix up covering everything from Cumbia to Soukous, gypsy, latin hip hop, reggaeton, dubstep, raverton, afro beats, vintage classics and beyond.
