A fantastic time was to be had with this band which appeared to pop up all over the place during the weekend. I was lucky enough to catch them at the Avalon Stage and they were so good I ambled off happy as Larry afterward and missed the band I’d come to see!
If you like Zion Train (two of them are members) or Dreadzone then you’ll love this Dub collective. With a bouncy lead singer who reminded me of the lead singer of the stereo Mc’s, the most gorgeous voiced female vocalist and a saxophonist (Zion Train) to take you to heaven, they really kicked up the mud with their ska/reggae fused dub which even had me grooving despite my aching legs.
A truly inspiring performance, and for me one of the highlights of the weekend. Love Grocer are going to be a name I’ll be looking out for at other festivals over the summer and I’ll definitely catch them again. I love them to bits! If you hear they’re going to a venue near you, go see them you’ll be dancing all night and grinning from ear to ear.
