Wed 15th Oct
FELA KUTI 70

This is an afrobeat extraveganza celebrating Fela Kuti's birthday - he would have been 70. Although many people know Fela's recording from the 1980's and beyond, this night is about Fela at his funkiest - the 1970's.

There will also be an exclusive exhibition showing 70 (keeping with the theme) original Fela Kuti vinyls, as well as never-before-seen photographs and some Fela inspired art. If you love afrobeat, and love Fela you should come pay your respects the only way he would have wanted - singing and dancing to afrobeat.

LIVE: DELE SOSIMI AFROBEAT ORCHESTRA + EXTRA SPECIAL GUESTS
