In support of Independent Venue Week, we present Aziz Ibrahim
Aziz Ibrahim: Beyond the Stone Roses
Aziz is a musical force far beyond his association with The Stone Roses and Ian Brown. A true pioneer, he has an impressive history of seamlessly crossing genres.
This Manchester-born British Asian artist has moved effortlessly between roles as a band member for artists like Simply Red and Steven Wilson, and/or as a co-writer for a diverse group including Paul Weller, MC Akala, Asia, and Rebel MC.
His solo show is a unique and vibrant experience, blending electronic beats with psychedelic guitar work. This showcases his virtuosity and songwriting skills, from his innovative Bombay Mixes of Stone Roses classics to his original EDM and Eastern-inspired tracks. As Aziz describes his philosophy, it's all about "the pursuit of imperfection."
