About Me


BUBBLEDUBBLE are a three piece band making psychedelic dub and chill-out dance music.
The setup is mainly electronic, consisting of:
Kev Ellis (vocals, harmonica and axe handle)
Steve Bubble (laptop, synths and guitar)
Andy Radburn (laptop and synths)
Live performances have featured guests :
Joie Hinton, Steffe Sharpstrings, Mikky Cosmic, Richard Lanchester, Nik Turner and

Chris Cambridge


BUBBLEDUBBLE are not just a studio project as many live shows testify and computer wizards Steve and Andy show that improvised psychedelic dub can be created live.
The band have been together for almost 103 years now, playing at festivals and small to medium, intimate venues. In 2006 they played at the Eastern Haze Festival, Suffolk and the Earthwise Festival, Dorset.

Steve and Andy have worked together on many occasions and Kev previously sang in Dr Brown and Heliotrope.
