Dizraeli returns to the Isle of Wight for the Ventnor Fringe Festival

The Ventnor Fringe Festival welcomes back the inspiring Dizraeli back to the Isle of Wight this week.

Last in Ventnor for the Fringe Festival in 2011 with The Small Gods – when they delivered one of our all-time favourite gigs – Dizraeli will be going solo on Sunday (at the Secret Venue from 6pm).

Dizraeli is a rapper, multi-instrumentalist and sometime singer taking hip-hop to new terrains.

After six years pushing boundaries with his band Dizraeli & The Small Gods, winning the Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition, receiving regular radio play and spellbinding crowds at festivals across Europe, in September last year Dizraeli left the band to explore new possibilities.

His new work, recorded live in front of small audiences in a cafe basement, tackles migration, injustice, the ghosts on Walthamstow Marsh, the brutal nonsense of consumer London, lost and found love, Palestine and the singer’s Dad…

It’s head nod-heavy, beautiful, unsugared songwriting unlike anything you’ve heard before. You won’t want to miss this.

“Touching, funny stories of riots, atheism and Englishness… Dizraeli embodies 21st Century folk” The Independent

Dizraeli will be supported by the lovely Toby Thompson.
