Reggae Innovation and Sound System Culture

Birmingham City University and the University of West Indies are delighted to announce a forthcoming international conference on reggae culture and sound system innovation.

This promises to be a landmark event in reggae culture and sound system research, highlighting the music’s subgenres, crossovers, mashups, intersections and innovations, featuring international academic guests and musicians.

Running alongside the Let’s Play Vinyl touring exhibition hosted at the BCU Parkside building, the conference will engage academics and reggae fans with the wider sound system culture. The exhibition features specially commissioned photographs of a new generation of sound system operators across the UK.

Conference spaces are limited so to register interest and for booking details send an email to reggae.innovation@bcu.ac.uk For exhibition information contact Letsgoyorks@yahoo.com
