UD Vocal Collective, since forming three years ago, have previously performed alongside Chipmunk, Wretch32 and Young Nate; and rocked festivals from Rise to The Mayor’s Show in Newham.  Led by emerging vocal star ShezAr and musical director, Daniel Thomas they’ll take the audience on a whistle-stop tour through the sights and sounds of the place they all call home. Think barbershops, backstreets and bus routes. Definately an event not to miss!
