A HIP-HOP act will perform in Taunton at the Creative Innovation Centre this Friday (March 4).

The Scribes are a multi-award-winning hip-hop act whose unique blend of beatboxing, off-the-cuff freestyling, crowd participation, and genre-spanning music has created a critically acclaimed live show quite unlike any other on the scene today, with appeal ranging far beyond traditional hip hop fare.

They have consistently proven to be an impressive and engaging live act with recent festival appearances at Latitude Festival, Glastonbury Festival, Wilderness Festival, Shambala Festival, Boomtown Fair, Bearded Theory, Beautiful Days, and Great Estate Festival and are proud winners of both the Exposure Music Award's "Best UK Urban Act" and the EatMusic Radio Award's "Best Live Act".

The group has also provided original music for BBC and Channel 4 television, and are featured regularly on both national and local radio and media including BBC 1Xtra and BBC Radio 1 Introducing.

Support on the night comes from Bridgwater-based up-and-coming live-looping instrumentalist Drewbag and BCFM radio's own Troy Da Hybrid.

The Scribes are hotly tipped as one to watch, recently signing with Stimulus Management (Nas, Snoop Dogg, Cardi B, Busta Rhymes) and sharing the stage with the likes of Macklemore, Rudimental, Nathan Dawe, Wu-Tang Clan, Dizzee Rascal, Kelis, Rag N Bone Man, Example, Lethal Bizzle, The Wailers, Jurassic 5, Sugarhill Gang, KRS One, De La Soul, MF Doom, and Souls Of Mischief to name (drop) but a few, and are steadily establishing a growing following across the continent to add to their already significant fan base at home.

The event will take place at Taunton Creative Innovation Centre at 8.30pm.

Tickets are £7 in advance and £8 on the door.
