Popularised in the mid 1970s, lovers’ rock is a reggae subgenre with romantic flair. Long-running concert series The Giants of Lovers Rock features performances from some of the artists who established the musical genre in the 70s and 80s, backed by a live band. An off-beat trip down memory lane, the latest iteration of the concert comes to the O2 in Greenwich this Saturday, with performances from Janet Kay, Carroll Thompson, Donna Rhoden, Don Campbel, Paul Dawkins and more.
The O2, Peninsula Square, London SE10 0DX. October 15, 7:30pm. Admission: £30+. www.theo2.co.uk/events/detail/giants-of-lovers-rock-1
