About

Ticklah has had an impact on a number of important groups and records. He is a founding member of the Easy Star All-Stars, with whom he co-produced Dub Side of the Moon; he played keyboards on that release and contributed to its follow up, Radiodread. He has played keys with Antibalas since 1999, co-writing and co-producing much of that celebrated Afrobeat band's output. He collaborated on hit remixes with DJ Spinna and was an orginal member of Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings. He appeared on a number of Mark Ronson productions, including tracks with Robbie Williams, Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse's Back to Black album, including the mega-hit "Rehab." In the midst of all these projects, he kept coming back to his personal labor of love. His third full length solo album, Ticklah Vs. Axelrod, will be released in mid September.

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov)
