Playing with Dele Sosimi at Afrobeat Vibration

I was fortunate enough to be asked to join Dele Sosimi at his Afrobeat Vibration show, Hackney New Empowering Church, London on the 27th November. Dele was Musical Director for Fela Kuti, who was a famous Nigerian multi-instrumentalist, composer, and the pioneer of Afrobeat. I’ve always been a massive Fela fan and to be part of the band this evening was an honour.

It was a fantastic evening! The band were tremendous, with an awesome energy on stage. The crowd were absolutely entranced and danced til 5am.
