Gentleman's Dub Club « 20th Anniversary Tour »

Gentleman’s Dub Club brings the 20th Anniversary Tour to Epic Studios, Norwich, on 30 October 2026 at 7:00 pm.

Formed in Leeds in 2006, Gentleman’s Dub Club (GDC) has been active for two decades in the UK’s dub and reggae landscape. What began as an eight-piece ensemble in a Headingley basement has evolved into an internationally touring outfit, known for an extensive studio discography and a live show that links traditional roots reggae and modern bass music.

The band’s origins are rooted in sound system culture, specifically inspired by Iration Steppas and the long-running SubDub nights in Leeds. This focus on low-end theory earned them early and sustained backing from key UK reggae figures.

The band has received support from David Rodigan MBE. Their music has aired on BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra, with plays from Don Letts, Huw Stephens, and Mistajam.

Since their debut EP Members Only (2009) and their full-length FOURtyFOUR (2013), the Gents have toured extensively. Their 20-year milestone follows performances at Glastonbury, Outlook Festival (Croatia), Boomtown Fair, Boardmasters, the US West Coast, India, Rototom, and Summer Jam.

With eight studio albums—primarily released through Easy Star Records—the band enters 2026 with their core lineup largely intact, continuing to explore the heritage of UK dub and its future evolution.
