Yellow Arch presents Smiling Ivy

Description

We've gathered a bunch of Sheffield's finest Ska / Reggae acts to bring you a night of top vibes! Being a city which rarely celebrates itself, we thought it's about time we made more of a song and dance about the unique music scene of Sheffield. On the bill we're proud to present...

SMILING IVY

Smiling Ivy have been slammin' their Explosive Dub, Hip Hop and Ska Punk vibes across the UK and beyond for many a year. Jammin' funk ska beats like man machines - on the brink of disaster, but never quite tipping the edge. Smiling Ivy is an untamed animal, enjoying the ride.
