James Lavelle knows a lot about grand undertakings, big adventures, epic journeys. He knows a lot about fat tunes too. In the early Nineties, while still a teenager, he set up groundbreaking record label Mo’ Wax. It gave the world California’s DJ Shadow, Japan’s DJ Krush, the UK’s Psychonauts, a new kind of British dance music, and some of the greatest sleeve art ever created.
When he wasn’t running the label and DJ’ing all over the place, Lavelle was heading up the band UNKLE. Working with DJ Shadow, Lavelle pulled together a staggering array of vocal talent (Mike D, Thom Yorke, Richard Ashcroft, Badly Drawn Boy) for 1998’s cinematic-psychedelic-hip-hopera debut 'Psyence Fiction'.
13 years on and still going strong, UNKLE play Brixton's O2 Academy on Friday 1st April with support coming from Duke Spirit.
