About

Project Blackbird

The UK-based Project Blackbird's five core members are vocalist Ming Nagel (originally from the USA), guitarist Alan Roberts, multi-instrumentalist Jamie Varley, multi-instrumentalist Jon Read (former trumpet player for The Specials), and now drummer Eddie Dublin. This extraordinary band, as BBC 6Music's Tom Robinson has described them, offers an atmospheric, genre-fluid listening experience that draws equally upon intellect and emotion. They have been championed by BBC Leicester's Uncle Frank (Frank Benbini of Fun Lovin Criminals) as well as an increasing number of independent stations and presenters, and continue to compel album listeners and gig audiences alike. In 2022, they were honoured to support Fun Lovin Criminals on their European tour.

Imagine a party at Ronnie Scott's, one fan suggests, where Sade, Björk, Jeff Beck, and David Byrne meet Portishead and then go for a late night curry to exchange ideas'sublime.
