Regulars at Grow over the last few years, Shedding Histories has progressed step by step into becoming a special event at Grow. They are a dynamic rare groove party set up by selectors Bena & Chameleonas. It has become known for its focus on creating an open-ended dance featuring diverse sounds from across the spectrum including jazz, psych, reggae, afrobeat and funk. Shedding Histories aims to tell stories through music by exploring sounds and their roots. Come with an open heart and mind, and you’re sure to leave enriched.

“People can expect an extended journey through multiple styles and sounds which should surprise and delight in equal measure. We like to be a little experimental but we always keep it funky at the same time. 

January can be a tricky month for many both financially and mentally, and we feel at least one cure for this is getting out and moving on a dance-floor surrounded by kind and like-minded people. This event is obviously completely free so people can come down and enjoy without having to spend a penny!” Bena & Chameleonas
