Big Audio Dynamite August 10, 2011

The original Big Audio Dynamite is back. The groundbreaking British rock/hip-hop/reggae outfit formed by Mick Jones in the wake of The Clash will reunite after twenty five years for a series of international live dates. Credited with popularizing sampling techniques and combining rock guitars with world beat, B.A.D has influenced everyone from Beastie Boys to Chemical Brothers and Gorillaz. The original group dispersed in 1988. A completely new line-up, known as B.A.D II, had success with singles !Rush' and !The Globe' before disbanding.
