Reggae legends Misty In Roots are making their long-awaited return to Bristol, celebrating five decades of their iconic sounds! This event will also serve as the official launch for the reissue of their classic album, 'Live at the Counter Eurovision', and will feature performances by Pama International along with special guests yet to be announced!

Formed in 1975 to accompany Nicky Thomas of Trojan Records fame, Misty In Roots quickly crafted their own distinctive roots reggae style. Their debut album, released in 1979, is regarded as one of the greatest live recordings in music history. With an impressive repertoire that includes nine John Peel sessions and countless international tours, the band has solidified their status as a leading force in reggae music.

They have also made waves through their involvement in the Rock Against Racism movement, sharing stages with iconic acts such as Elvis Costello and The Specials. This is a show you won’t want to miss! 🌍🔊

Get ready for an unforgettable celebration of history, music, and community! 🎉
