CID Music’s Capital Letters are going to be playing The Hare & Hounds in Kings Heath, Birmingham on Friday 20th March. This is the first live show since the re-formation of the band. Sure to be a big event for reggae fans, tickets on sale now.
News has been rife around Birmingham over the last week or so regarding the noise troubles at The Rainbow in Digbeth. Here at CID Music we have been reminiscing about the good times we had there in 2008. Our particular favourite was the event we put on in November. For those of you who joined us, feel free to reminisce too. For those of you who missed it, take a look at Smileymic (and other archive posts) to see what you missed out on.

We thought we’d start with a gentle reminder, especially for those folk not from Birmingham, of some of the Birmingham artists who have had top 40 records. There are a few missing but we are working on the list and will update as we go along but it’s a good reminder of why it’s always good to know what’s going on in town as there is always something musically exciting about to happen around here:
