Souls of Mischief

Saturday in the Inner Harbour at Ship Point is always a special day during Ska Del the Funky Homosapien, Casual, Pep Love and the Souls of Mischief Opio, Tajai, Phesto and A-Plus. The quartets landmark album 93 Til Infinity remains one of the touchstones of the genre, with its live bass and deep jazz samples. Their intricate, introspective rhymes and flows changed the game in a way that people are only now beginning to recognize en masse. A west coast summer night at Ship Point with Souls of Mischief is something you do not want to miss.Where else can you see not just a legendary hip-hop, but see them with a living legend of dancehall on the bill as well? Because thats what CHARLY BLACK is, a living legend of dancehall. Theres no other way to define such a powerful voice. Songs like Whine and Youre Perfect are huge dancehall tracks and have helped define the genre, but its his intergalactically popular track Gyal You A Party Animal that vaulted Black into international stardom. With over a billion streams and sales high enough to earn him a diamond record in Latin America (the first Jamaican artist to ever achieve the feat), the song is one of the most endearing and popular dancehall tracks of all time. If you like getting sweaty from dancing, you should be there at Ship Point for Charly Blacks Victoria debut. You can expect a very special appearance from one of the globes most prominent dancehall DJs, NICO SUPREME, who will be dropping in to get the crowd as hype as ever.Before we get there, one of the most exciting and powerful voices in modern reggae, EVA LAZARUS also makes her Victoria debut. The multi-genre UK singer, known for her ultra-dynamic performances, shuts down soundsystems around the world. Her celebrated work with festival veterans Mungos Hi-Fi and her own solo catalogue, have cemented Lazarus as one of the most sought-after vocalists in the genre and we cant wait to see what she has in store for us. Kicking the day off in true style, is SONIC ALLEY. Fronted by dynamic veteran Caleb Hart, Sonic Alley is a veritable reggae supergroup, bringing unmatched energy and musicianship to every performance. We also have our longtime ally in the culture, TANK GYAL, whos coming back to spin the best in Jamaican-rooted music before and in between bands to keep you moving. Come out, tap in and be a part of this epic celebration of music.
