They might be one of the world’s longest-running reggae bands, but time has done little to slow Third World down.

The band have released a staggering 21 albums over the course of their career, and will be bringing their massive back catalogue with them to the Factory Theatre in February.

CombiningR&B, funk, pop, rock, dancehall and rap, their boppy and energised music totally lends itself to the live experience. Though they’re at an age where they could be forgiven slinking off into retirement, the band have instead committed themselves to the art of performance; to their fans; and perhaps most importantly of all, to music.

Third World play the Factory Theatre on Sunday February 14. Tickets are available here.
