Hassan Erraji Master Drumming Class Goods Shed, Stroud GL5 3AP Hassan Erraji is a blind Moroccan Master Musician – a singer songwriter, multi instrumentalist, arranger and composer, entertainer and story teller with a highly respected international reputation. Born in the village of Tazart, south of Marrakech, Hassan was introduced to music at an early age and as a young boy made his first instrument from a tin can and a piece of wood with bicycle brake cables for strings. Erraji embraces a thoroughly current and very danceable contemporary global sound, whilst these new songs of burning passion memorably re-ignite the ancient & magical fire of stately bass & derbuka-driven Berber rhythms, and move effortlessly across a glamorous mosaic of lush Arabic oud & qanun power-chords and soaring taarab-style strings. Hassan Erraji will be leading a master drumming class (1pm) and performing in the evening (doors open at 6pm). Co-hosted by Golden Fleece Trading Company who will decorate and be trading at the venue with their quality Moroccan crafts. There will be delicious middle eastern food provided by Hazel Haziz. The vegetables will be organic as far as possible and the lamb will be free-range. The menu will be Moroccan Lamb Tagine (with saffron, apricots, dates, raisins, almonds, honey, tomatoes, onion, garlic, paprika, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, fresh coriander & parsley) and Moroccan Vegetable Tagine (with spinach, carrots, onions, garlic, tomatoes,courgettes, red & green peppers, aubergines, broad beans, chick peas, smoked paprika). Both dishes to be served with lemon & herb couscous, stuffed vine leaves and a bit of home-made hoummus. Links Tickets and booking Performance Moroccan Supper Master drumming class |

Clients include Diesel, Topshop, Patron Tequila, Urban Outfitters Louise Gray, Dazed & Confused, BEAT magazine, Grazia, Wolf magazine, You Me Bum Bum Train, Shoreditch House, Punch Drunk, Silent Disco. Elsewhere, she has DJ'ed for several private parties, including Bjork's NYE party in Reykjavic and a private festival at Eton. We'll then break away from this for a power half hour...

Gadjo Thursday 8 August 8pm Goods Shed, Stroud GL5 3AP Our favourite band of the summer is here again all the way from Barcelona. They came from furthest Gadjistan and choose Barcelona as the place where they would open their suitcases and air their instruments. Seven musicians bound by their Gadjistani culture, a rich and festive culture with bewitching rhythms and funny dances, exuberant, theatrical melodies and a mish-mash of languages. Gadjo have toured extensively through Europe, sowing their musical mayhem as they go, from gypsy-cumbia, balkanic-ska to reggae-swing and surf tango. Sometimes they appear playing an intimate acoustic set on the market square, sometimes under the lights of a festival stage, but wherever it is expect the dust to fly as the music kidnaps your heart and lifts your feet into an unstoppable dance. Tickets: £6 advance, £7 on the door Advanced tickets can be bought online here or in person from Trading Post 26 Kendrick Street, Stroud, GL5 1AQ |
