Windrush generation

Well supported

The Caribbean migrants who came to Britain between the Empire Windrush's 1948 arrival and the early 1960s — and who carried Jamaican music with them. Their front rooms hosted the first blues dances, their children built the British sound systems, and every UK genre in this archive from lovers rock to jungle stands on that migration.
