‘Lokkhi Terra meets Dele Sosimi: Cubafrobeat’

Cubafrobeat, or the story of a dazzling encounter. On the one hand, Lokkhi Terra, a critically acclaimed British group which combines different musical traditions present in London: Cuban rumba, traditional Bengali music and Afrobeat, all performed on Asian and Latin American instruments, with a dash of South African tones. On the other hand, Dele Sosim, a London-based keyboard player of Nigerian origin and a major representative of Afrobeat. The magazine Time Out London described them as “Stunning Headliners…a majestic multi-cultural blend of sounds… effortlessly builds bridges between rolling Indian raga rhythms, Afro-Cuban grooves, Acid Jazz/funk and free flowing improvisation."
