Join us as we chart the influence and impact of Black people and communities on popular British music, for centuries.
From the artists and producers breaking through today to John Blanke in the 1500s – a royal trumpeter to the courts of Henry VII and VIII – Black people have had an immense impact on the artists, innovation and sound of popular British Music.
Supported by new research from our partners at the University of Westminster’s Black Music Research Unit, this ground-breaking season will bring fascinating, hidden and side-lined stories to life across a rich season of programming.
