DJ Harvey is set to play his first UK shows in a decade.
The pioneering selector, instrumental in the dissemination of disco in the UK, is ending his “self-imposed exile” with London and Manchester dates, in partnership with Red Bull Music Academy, on whose stage Harvey produced one of Best Fit’s Sonar highlights.
Harvey plays new venue the Oval Space in London on 19 October, and Manchester’s revamped Warehouse Project on 25 October. Watch his fascinating RBMA Fireside Chat below.
