Combining global music, reggae, fusion and punk influences, Jah

Wobble has entranced the world with his hypnotic bass riffs for over four

decades and has become one of Britain’s most influential and distinct

bass players. Accompanied by his band, Invaders of the Heart, Jah

Wobble is reborn into a new decade as defiant as ever with a brand new

UK tour.

Born John Wardle, the nickname was given to him by Sid Vicious

following an evening of drunken antics. Sid Vicious then went on to give

Jah his first ever bass guitar. As a bassist, Jah Wobble is well known as

one of the founding members and ultimately the back bone of the

legendary Public Image Limited (PiL) during the early years. Whilst

working with John Lyndon, Keith Levene and Jim Walker, Jah’s

notoriously powerful low end bass created PiL’s debut album Public

Image: First Issue, which included the band’s first Top 10 single as well

as their prestigious second album Metal Box, which included the

post-punk classic Death Disco.
