Hip-hop out of BirminghamWin tickets to The Streets on 8 June at Den Atelier

The Streets turn the mundane into the extraordinary. The oft-repetitive, unspectacular sludge of everyday life is zoomed into with a 4K camera by frontman Mike Skinner, long a legend of UK hip-hop who has traced UK garage, drum & bass, house, bassline, grime and rap to develop a firm reputation as a working-class hero, speaking to society’s fringes.

Through The Streets’ music, spanning five albums and one mixtape, life’s nuances are assessed and reimagined by cutting commentary from the perspective of an everyman.

The group is playing a select number of shows and festivals in June and July, and we’re lucky to be one of them. Come see The Streets at Den Atelier on Saturday, 8 June.
