Coventry-based 2 Tone ska revival band The Selecter formed back in 1979. Fronted by the iconic Pauline Black, they’re best known for their political and controversial lyrics.

“It’s a way of being,” explains Pauline, “a way of life and a way of identifying yourself. 2 Tone unified all those different groups, and we can still do that. We can go anywhere, and that’s the beauty of 2 Tone. It’s the hybrid nature of it that makes everything possible.”
