RICHARD LOBBAN

With a career spanning over 35 years, I’ve been a key player in London’s vibrant nightlife scene, holding residencies at major central London nightclubs and bringing soulful sounds to packed dance floors. Over the past 15 years, I’ve taken my music international, performing at Flyaway Soul Weekenders in destinations including Portugal, Greece, Spain, and Barbados. A regular at Notting Hill Carnival in recent years, I continue to share my passion for soul, funk, and club classics with diverse audiences. I also run Soul Good VIP, a successful monthly night held on the first Friday of every month, now in its 15th year, where I headline alongside top guest DJs.

FATZ OHO. After going solo 5 years ago, Fatz has gone from strength to strength.  Making the transition from mic man to all rounder seamlessly. The biggest complaint we had last year was “why didn’t Fatz play more.”

We have listened and he is back.  Playing music isn’t just about the tune, it’s about the story, vibe and atmosphere.  That is what he brings, so get ready for one hell of an experience.
