LIVE – SATURDAY 2nd MAY
We can’t wait to welcome this formidable 6 piece to Birmingham for the final date on their UK tour. They will arrive from Ottawa, Canada, with their potent blend of Afro-beats, Funk, Latin and Soul, ready to shake the place down… think Fela Kuti, think Antibalas, think Quantic Soul Orchestra, think James Brown, think I can’t miss this!!!
The group released its latest album, Manifesto, in late 2008. Blending dirty funk and tropical jazz to the militant afrobeat of the previous release. Manifesto is already being hailed as a modern classic and is seeing the band blow away rock and pop bands in the Canadian charts!
Jibbering DJ’s in support spinning vintage and cutting edge beats and treats…
£6 IN ADVANCE (NUS £5)
