St Marys Quay, Gateshead Quays
Newcastle upon tyne, England

One of the most hotly anticipated events of the year will see Californian tuntablist DJ Shadow unleash his live show on Gateshead Quays, headlining a to-die-for bill which also includes Shadow's legendary 'Brainfreeze' collaborator Cut Chemist. A rare visitor to the UK, this will be one of just four dates Shadow plays to promote his new album. A hugely significant artist, Shadow was pioneering in the development of experimental instrumental hip-hop in the early ‘90s. His genre-bending works blend darkly cinematic elements of funk, rock, hip-hop, ambient, jazz and soul.
An all-day event from 2pm to 11pm, look out for details of the full bill for one of the hottest events of the summer.
