On a bed of deep, rolling bass, Jah Wobble and Invaders of the Heart build a hypnotic world of dub, punk and global grooves.
As a founding member of Public Image Ltd, Wobble’s bass drove post-punk classics like ‘Public Image’ and ‘Death Disco’, before Invaders of the Heart carried his sound across the globe, from Middle Eastern melodies to heavyweight takes on film themes like Get Carter.
Born John Wardle in Stepney, Jah Wobble got his name from his friend, the Sex Pistols’ Sid Vicious, who slurred it after a drunken night out and later lent him his first bass. Since forming Invaders of the Heart in 1982, he has been continuing to turn the reggae records of his East London youth into a language entirely his own.
