CANVAS presents Goldie (Metalheadz, UK)

Goldie

23 APR 2016 | Pioneer, graffiti artist, drum ‘n’ bass icon, DJ, actor and producer. Goldie is a total original, a multi-talented complex shape shifter, who’s sold more than 2.5 million records worldwide.

Against all odds, and despite a traumatic childhood, he succeeded in unleashing his boundless creativity from a very young age, having transformed an underground British sound into a mainstream interna- tional movement, whilst collaborating with major pop icons along the way.

It was his move to London and a visit to the Rage Club in 1991 that things changed for the graffiti artist and the music genesis was born. DJ Fabio and Grooverider were playing that night and gave Goldie a taste of Jungle.

Whilst Goldie was seeing the birth and growth of the now infamous Drum and Bass label Metalheadz, he found the time to create an al- bum which to this day, is as it is titled, “Timeless”.

Goldie (Metalheadz, UK) is performing on Saturday, 23 April 2016 at CANVAS from 10pm till late. Cover is priced at $38 (door) and $25 (advance).

Gary is one of those proverbial jack of all trades… you know the rest. When not writing about lifestyle and culture, he dabbles in photography, graphic design, plays four instruments and is a professional wearer of bowties. His greatest weakness: spending more money on clothes than he probably should. Find him across the social world as @grimlay
