Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Jam - 07.06.14

Posted: Apr, 7th 2015

 

Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Jam is a monthly night at The Forge, bringing afrobeat songbook classics of Fela Kuti and Dele Sosimi originals. Dele’s pulsating live shows demonstrate his vision of afrobeat – faithful to the original Fela blueprint, but also clearly bearing Dele’s own DNA, further expanding the horizons of the genre.

Dele Sosimi - frequently cited by famed remixers as playing a vital role in keeping afrobeat relevant - kickstarts Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Jam at The Forge in Camden featuring members of Dele's different line ups for over sixteen years and guest musicians drawn from London's incredibly diverse younger generation giving new direction, life and meaning to both the popular and rare classics from the afrobeat songbook.

'Dele elevates afro-jazz unto a new realm, the realm of cosmopolitanism – a confounding hybrid of euro-classical and afro-ritual' Xtrax magazine
