DOPE KENNY

24/05/2024

I'll be slapping down some heavy Basslines this Sunday 26th May at The Horn in St Albans, alongside the 'Deck Doctor'. No work the next day for most in the UK, being a bank holiday Monday, so come on down for a few drinks and let's party....and don't forget to put on those raving shoes!
