The Selecter - Reunions

Reunions

Black and Davies reformed The Selecter in 1991, but Neol Davies left the new line-up after a year. Post 1993, another original member, Arthur 'Gaps' Hendrickson, performed with this line-up occasionally. They released several new albums, toured around the world and even toured with No Doubt in 1997 in the USA. Pauline Black continued to record and perform as The Selecter up until 2006.

On October 31, 2010 Pauline Black and Arthur “Gaps” Hendrickson played under The Selecter name to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the seminal debut album, ‘Too Much Pressure’, by performing the whole album live at the “Sinners Day Festival”, Ethias Stadium, Hasselt, Belgium. They also performed at The Bloomsbury Ballroom, London, in November 2010. In her capacity as lead singer of The Selecter, Pauline Black featured prominently in BBC4's "Reggae Britannia" series in February 2011 and the televised "Reggae Britannia Concert" @ The Barbican, London, alongside reggae luminaries Ken Boothe, Neville Staple and Brinsley Forde of Aswad.

In Sep 2011 the band released "Made In Britain" on Ltd Vinyl, a CD version and as an MP3, and then toured this album in March 2012 playing 18 dates in the UK. The tour was such a success, that the band added an 11 date tour for October 2012 for all the towns they missed in March and will be releasing a live version of "Made In Britain", called "Live In Britain" - The only way to get your hands on a physical copy of "Live In Britain" will be to go to one of the 11 gigs in October 2012. The band are also going to play 5 dates in Australia in November 2012, this will be the first time The Selecter have ever toured in Australia.
