UK Afro-jazz interpreters Yamäya return to the Komedia to launch their long-awaited first album Senegal.
Expect triumphant horns, majestic vocals, and an unparalleled heavy rhythm section. One of the best live bands in Britain delivering powerful original music eclectically drawn from Afrobeat, Ethio-Jazz, Dub, Mbalax, Jazz, and other distinctly UK styles.
Praise for Senegal:
“Fresh, uplifting and cannot help loving the more I listen to every one of the ten works. From the powerfully delivered lead vocals which take me to Senegal, the Trombone solo, tenor sax solo, baritone sax solo, guitar solo all being spot-on where they pop up, to the horn arrangements which create the promise of yet more to come” – Dele Sosimi, Fela Kuti’s Egypt 80
THIS EVENT WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE KOMEDIA STUDIO BAR
