These past 2 weeks have been mad for the TakeOver family.... Friday the 5th we filled Spanky Van Dykes in Nottingham to capacity with our Tippa Irie event. And this Saturday marked our first night in Leeds, so big up Brother Culture, Exodus, Parly B and all of the fans who came down.
We are coming back to Notts and Leeds this October with some BIG bookings, I can't say anything yet but watch this space!! Join "Reggae TakeOver Nottingham" or "Reggae TakeOver Leeds" on Facebook to get up-to-the-minute updates.
Thanks again for all the support

Tippa Irie has requested that his bredrin Marvin Brown warm up the mic for him next Friday! The Notts vocalist/songwriter/producer makes music in a variety of styles, and will be showcasing his talent for reggae and dancehall at Spanky Van Dykes. Marvin has worked with some of the biggest names in the industry and was asked to voice on the "Road of Life" riddim alongside Kymani Marley and Peter Tosh's son, Andrew.
