Recently, exciting Scottish promotion FLY announced their first ever festival in the open-air surroundings of a world heritage site underneath the iconic Edinburgh Castle. The first names out of the bag for September 24th were the much loved Motor City Drum Ensemble, live act and dub house legend Mr G, Dutch house heroes Detroit Swindle and Sub Club’s iconic pair of Harri + Domenic. But now, Booka Shade have been added to the bill playing their famous live show to ensure this is the best event of the summer.

Booka Shade are a legendary live act who have been headlining festival sized gigs and vast arenas for years. Their richly detailed, vocal laced and accessible house sound is played masterfully live on an array of gear making it as fun to watch as it is to listen to. In their time the German pair have put out many seminal hits and some complete full lengths and so this is very special indeed.

After launching three years ago as a weekly residency at Edinburgh’s Cabaret Voltaire as a place for a core group of talented friends to play records and hang out, forward thinking house and techno party FLY has gone from strength to strength, holding court at world renowned clubs like Barcelona’s La Terrazza and Glasgow’s Sub Club in that time.

The event will take place in the Ross Bandstand on September 24th, a prime city centre location only two minutes walk from Edinburgh Waverley train station. This fantastic venue has been neglected for years, so FLY are buzzing to bring it back to life and showcase the space to a fresh, new, young crowd.
