Production details

Bristol-born rapper, poet and musician Dizraeli comes to the Elgar Room. Although rooted strongly in hip hop traditions, his work draws inspiration from old folk music, recognising the common ground shared by songs of the people from any point in history. He leads the six-piece band Dizraeli and the Small Gods, fusing beatbox, strings, turntables and harmony singing in an unashamedly heartfelt reinvention of hip hop. Elgar Room
