The Bloody Beetroots, Crookers, Caspa + More!

THE PLAYGROUND returns to Electric Brixton for what promises to be one of our biggest nights yet. Headlining the legendary venue will be none other than Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo aka THE BLOODY BEETROOTS in a brand new live performance on Friday 23rd June until the late hours of the morning with guest CROOKERS, CASPA, AUTOEROTIQUE and more!

? Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo aka THE BLOODY BEETROOTS is about to make a statement to the world, starting with a game changing new live show across Europe in 2017. After a hiatus and a sabbatical from live performing, Sir Bob is coming back to his European roots for a string of shows, with Electric Brixton his preferred London destination. This is THE BLOODY BEETROOTS- LIVE at full throttle!

This will be Europe’s exclusive preview into the new world of THE BLOODY BEETROOTS, and a chance to experience the red-hot new album before it’s release later in 2017.

From the start, Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo aka THE BLOODY BEETROOTS was capable of synergising sonics and sensibilities from THE DAMNED to DEBUSSY, the anthemic wistfulness of new wave and primal screams of hardcore punk, into remarkably actualised efforts that became platforms for larger socio-political historiography and cultural histrionics.
