Bacardi B-Live presents The Big Groove, Byblos, Glasgow, 23 Sept

Bacardi B-Live's The Big Groove will give Glaswegians the rare opportunity to embrace the sounds of house, disco and hip-hop all under one roof on the September holiday weekend. Taking place at Byblos in The Merchant City, aside from the host of DJ talent appearing and a 5am licence (TBC), the event offers an added enticement to those looking to squeeze the most out of their three days off. The line-up is headed by DMC World Mixing Champ, the legendary DJ Cash Money, and also includes: Back To Basics resident and 20:20 Soundsystem member, Ralph Lawson; Germany's Sonar Kollektiv head honchos, the ever-versatile Jazzanova; hip-hop breaks duo, Evil Nine and Eskimo Recordings' leftfield disco specialist, Sir Raymond Mang (aka Raj Gupta of Block 16 fame). With a local talent such as Sensu (live) and DJs Danny Sharkey, Billy Woods, Scott Bios, and Freak Menoovers also appearing alongside breakdancers, The Flying Jalepenos, it's sure to be a bit special.
