Bammi has been flying the flag for vintage jazz, ska and reggae in the company of many of the finest Jamaican and British musicians for decades.
He was an original member of the genre-busting Cymande and is featured in their documentary, “Getting It Back”; he’s played alongside everyone from Aswad and Jazz Jamaica to Paul Simon and Miriam Makeba and has been a mainstay of Jools Holland’s Rhythm and Blues Orchestra for over 20 years. Their session last year was one for the ages!!
Come rain or shine, as we can take shelter in the greenhouse and under marquees if the weather is unkind to us.
Join us for a wonderful session of seriously good sounds!

Getting to us
BPCG is in the middle of Brockwell Park, between the tennis courts and the walled gardens. Follow the signs.
If you are driving to the gig, we recommend parking your car on Dulwich Road or near Dulwich Road.
Entrance and exit from the Park should be via the Park’s Lido Gates on Dulwich Road.
The park will be dark when you leave the gig so everyone must leave in groups with torches.
