THE SELECTER:

The Selecter is led by their iconic frontwoman Pauline Black OBE. One of very few women in the 2-Tone scene, she is often referred to as the Queen of Ska. Known the world over for hits including “Three Minute Hero,” “Missing Words,” “Too Much Pressure” and “On My Radio”, original drummer Charley ‘Aitch’ Bembridge also features in the current live Selecter line-up.

2025 marked the 45th anniversary of their debut album Too Much Pressure and, amongst other dates worldwide, they will performed on Glastonbury’s iconic Pyramid Stage.

A new feature documentary Pauline Black: A 2-Tone Story had its premiere at the BFI’s London Film Festival. Based on her memoir ‘Black by Design’, Pauline tells her extraordinary life story in the same frank manner that helped shape her as an iconic, era-defining female musician. It’s a highly cinematic documentary that uses interviews and archive material plus a variety of contributors sourced from a wide swathe of the British music and artistic scene.
