Afro Spot At The Forge - 13.06.14

Afrospot Orchestra is a ten-piece band led by Kodjovi Kush, world number one interpreter of Agbajazz - a fusion of highlife and traditional music and dance from the Ewe tribe, with jazz and its Western influences.

Afrospot night commences with DJs splicing and dicing together different global styles with two live sets; the first is draped in the rich music of West Africa, and the second is allowed to deviate like a globetrotter. Guest musicians take over the second part of the evening with renewed energy, connecting with every soul in session. Afrospot closes with the DJs being let off the leash to throw down the deep funk.

Performers:
Adesose Wallace - percussions/vocals
Kofi Adu - drums
Idris Rahman - sax
Emanuel Afram - bass

and other stars of the world music scene from the UK and abroad
