Taking influences from everything from Fela Kutis afro-funk, the heaviest, deepest Jamaican dub, raw tribal rhythms and modern day dance-floor sonic experimentalism, Asazi Space Funk Explosion's sound veers from heart-wrenching melodies to unhinged percussive work-outs to thumping, booty-shaking rock-out rhythms.

What explodes on stage is an inter-planetary mix of afro-celt space-funk lunacy, vibrant with a mélange of musical and cultural influences not attributable to any one place, time or solar system, but welcoming all with open arms to the dance.

Y'all is Fantasy Island hail from Falkirk, right in the grim industrial heart of Scotland. Adam Stafford is the singer and songwriter behind Y'all is Fantasy Island. He is a prodigious 23 year old and has been writing songs and playing guitar since the tender age of 14, but it is only in the last few years that he has matured into a powerful and emotive songwriter and performer capable of knocking audiences dead with only a battered 30 quid classical guitar and a voice too old to old be coming out of his scrawny frame.
