Father Funk’s Church of Love
Chapel 1877, Cardiff, Sat 28 Sept
Stepping out of Bristol and into the bright lights of Cardiff, the Father Funk is about to, rather appropriately, turn Chapel 1877 into his Church Of Love this month. Set up three years ago by Will Williamson, the event has found its feet in the West Country and is embarking on its first ever Nuns On Tour.
The Father himself will be giving a sermon at this disco of debauchery, with a long list of priests (disclaimer: DJs) in tow for the eight-hour affair. Dr Syntax, who you may have seen with The Mouse Outfit, and DJ Pete Cannon have chosen the event for the first night of their collaborative tour, bringing hip-hop beats and bars to the altar. Drum’n’bass, funk and jungle will all be part of the pilgrimage, with live sax from Mr Woodnote amongst six other acts for mass.
Representing Cardiff is veteran DJ Veto, bringing jazz, Afro, Latin and disco into the mix. As regular guest on Blue Honey line ups and member of Afro Cluster, he is sure to leave you all feeling blessed by the end of this long night. Come Sunday morning, you might need to go to an actual church to repent for your sins.
