DRUM ‘n’ bass legend Goldie – the first superstar produced by the breakbeat jungle movement – is set to perform an intimate show in Somerset.

The star, who has been ranked among dance music’s most influential artists over the past 30 years, will be at the Cheese & Grain in Frome on November 2.

Walsall-born Goldie soared to prominence in 1995 with the ground-breaking album, Timeless, widely
hailed as one of the most crucial electronic releases ever.

Having sold millions of records worldwide, Goldie has sustained a hugely successful career spanning over three decades.

Known throughout the music industry as the “King of Jungle”, he went on to achieve success in various spheres, including on the big screen, with roles in Guy Ritchie’s Snatch and James Bond hit, The World Is Not Enough.

In the early 2000s, he was awarded an honorary doctorate from Brunel University and from the University of Wolverhampton, where he became an honorary Doctor of Design.

And in 2016, he was made an MBE for services to music and young people.

In November, the icon will be taking a break from his 30 Years of Metalheadz tour to make his Cheese & Grain debut.

“This is a rare opportunity to see Goldie up close and personal,” a spokesperson said.
