The memory of Joe Strummer lives on in Belfast. Friends and mentors of Bandwidth the Oh Yeah Music Centreannounced at the beginning of May a partnership with the Strummerville Foundation which will bring much needed band rehearsal space to the city centre, along with a whole lot of additoode..
Some great Strummerville bands were there for the launch, like crazy London warbler Dan Smith and good old fashioned rawk n roll band Wild Wolves. Top of the bill, Belfast’s very own, very brilliant Panama Kings, and they brought this song in tribute to the event…

Then back to one of their own classics. Bandwidth has always been a huge fan of the band, but we never fully appreciated the awesome power of their live act until we sat up on stage with them, camera in hand. They truly are an awesome live act – and if you live in mainland Britain, head to see the Kings wherever you can next week on their mini tour, which kind of culminates in London gig with Ash at the Bloomsbury Ballroom (not before heading home to the Limelight on 27 May to officially launch Golden Recruit).
Enjoy!

After the event at Oh Yeah, the worst kept secret of the night – a secret gig in the basement of the AU Magazine offices. Bandwidth followed dutifully, and evidence of the resulting carnage can be found here..
