Celloman has been active for over twenty years under various guises including an electric band, acoustic string trio, and solo cello. Having released seven albums and performed extensively across the UK and abroad including at major festivals such as Glastonbury, Womad, Sauti za Busara (Zanzibar) and Exit Festival in Serbia, Celloman are back with a UK tour to promote the release of ‘Panacea', the first full band studio album since the 2009 release of Sharptown. 

The band, fronted by electric cello and including live drums, bass and sampled beats, has a big reputation and sound. A sound that is a unique fusion of world music, jazz and classical, mixed with African and Middle-Easternrhythms. In addition, Panacea adds a Classical Baroque flavour to the mix. 

Alongside his work with Celloman, cellist Ivan Hussey has had a distinguished career as a session cellist, performing and recording with the likes of: Mick Jagger, Soul II Soul, Incognito, Jay Z, The Lighthouse Family, Snow Patrol, Annie Lennox, Duran Duran, Gabrielle, Natacha Atlas, Smoke City, Shaun Escoffrey, Third World, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry and many more.

Support on the evening is from Pablo Hussey, his Spiritual flute playing
