Get ready for a night of legendary reggae and pop as Musical Youth bring their iconic sound to The Donkey in Leicester, presented by On Point Agency, with special support.
Best known for their worldwide smash hit Pass the Dutchie, Musical Youth made music history in the 1980s, taking reggae into the pop mainstream and capturing the hearts of fans around the globe. The track topped the UK charts for three weeks and reached the US Billboard Hot 100 top 10, becoming one of the most recognisable reggae hits of its generation.
Now fronted by original lead singer Dennis Seaton, Musical Youth continue to celebrate their incredible musical legacy with a live band, bringing the hits that made them a household name to audiences old and new.
Expect a nostalgic trip through an era-defining catalogue, including Pass the Dutchie, The Youth of Today, Never Gonna Give You Up, Heartbreaker, 007, Tell Me Why and Sixteen.
With a Grammy nomination, international tours, appearances on MTV and Saturday Night Live, and a memorable performance at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games closing ceremony, Musical Youth remain an important part of British reggae and pop history.
Whether you grew up with the original hits or are discovering the music for the first time, this is your chance to experience the timeless rhythms, feel-good energy and unmistakable sound of Musical Youth live.
As the iconic lyrics say: “This Generation Rules the Nation!”
Join us at The Donkey, Leicester, on Friday 18 December for a night of reggae classics, live music and unforgettable memories.
