*The Selecter’s lead singer Pauline Black has confirmed that their forthcoming shows this Summer will go ahead saying: “The Selecter will continue to perform, bringing the message & spirit of 2-tone to audiences everywhere” following the devastating news that original member Arthur ‘Gaps’ Hendrickson recently passed away.*

The Selecter is led by their iconic frontwoman Pauline Black and co-fronted by original member Arthur ‘Gaps’ Hendrickson with original drummer Charley ‘Aitch’ Bembridge. Pauline is one of very few women in the 2-tone scene – often referred to as the Queen of Ska.

It’s been 44 years since the release of The Selecter’s seminal debut album ‘Too Much Pressure’ and while it still inspires and resonates today, their studio album ‘Human Algebra’ released in 2023 keeps the fire burning with a stellar collection of hard-hitting tracks in the band’s own inimitable style.

Five men stand casually against a corrugated metal wall beneath a “No Smoking in Net Sheds” sign. They wear a mix of leather jackets, denim, hats, and sunglasses. One man in a long black coat stands slightly forward, smoking, while the others lean or stand relaxed, each with a distinct rock‑and‑roll style.
