The Sudanese-London collective return to the Jazz Cafe to launch their anticipated new album Let’s Go with an electrifying night of funk and soul-infused afrobeat.

Recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, their revamped sound combines soul, afrobeat and psychedelica that drive through the rich sounds of traditional Sudanese forms.

Blending Arabic rhythms and guitar with raw Eastern funk and Western jazz, the 10-piece collective is supported by an international backing band, heavy bass, synths, horns and percussion create a sound that owes as much to Detroit as it does to Khartoum.

This show will be opened by Yamen Mekdad, a music researcher, collector, DJ and radio host based in London. Yamen is a co-producer and curator of the Syrian Cassette Archives, a web based platform that preserves the Syrian cassette era.

This event is presented by MARSM UK and The Scorpios, as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival programme, running across the capital from 12-21 November.
