The Gig Cartel - Artist profiles: Trevor Nelson Soul Nation

Trevor Nelson MBE brings his legendary Soul Nation party to The Picturedrome — a celebration of 90s & ’00s soul and R&B that’s equal parts nostalgia and dancefloor heat. From his pirate-radio roots at Kiss FM to A&R work with the likes of D’Angelo and signing Lynden David Hall, Trevor is one of the UK’s most trusted R&B tastemakers.
A BBC mainstay across Radio 2 and 1Xtra, he’s curated sell-out Royal Albert Hall specials, co-created Windrush 75 and a BBC Proms Soul Revolution event, and continues to headline Soul Nation shows nationwide. With 12 successful compilation albums, TV credits including MTV’s long-running The Lick and high-profile awards — an MBE, Ivor Novello Gold Badge, Radio Academy Lifetime Achievement and four MOBOs — Trevor blends deep knowledge with party instincts.

Expect lovingly curated classics, big sing-alongs and flawless mixes that take you right back to the golden era of R&B. Perfect for anyone who grew up on the sound of the 90s and 00s — come ready to dance, sing and celebrate
