To revisit the history of UK garage is to first revisit Chicago producer Roy Davis Jr.’s 1996 record “Gabrielle” which had a huge impact on the scene. In particular, it was Davis Jr.’s ‘live garage’ version of the track that strongly influenced the UKG sound happening in England.

Punch Touring and Vagabondz have established the Sound History Tour which will feature Roy Davis Jr., UK garage legend Sticky, Shola Ama, Eliphino, Oscar Luweez and Mooney. Running from the 15th of October to the 22nd, the tour will begin in Nottingham and finish in Manchester. Below are the cities, dates and venues of the tour.
