Digable Planets

Digable Planets burst onto the music scene in 1993 with their Grammy-winning single, ‘Rebirth Of Slick (Cool Like Dat)’. Made up of Ishmael Butler (“Butterfly”), Craig Irving (“Doodlebug”) and Mary Ann Vieira (“Ladybug Mecca”), the trio carved out a unique style of jazz-informed hip-hop. Following a spectacular sold-out London show, the legendary hip-hop group are renowned as a tight touring unit, performing gems from the group’s catalogue as well as the trio’s skill at rocking the crowd with a live band. A pioneering act that continues to cast a wide-ranging, genre- bending influence, Digable Planets have left an indelible mark on music. More than 30 years after their debut, their music still shines, and the iconic group continues to bring their celebrated stage show to excited crowds around the world, coming to Scala this summer.
