Lagos Afro-Funk Collective brings its full line-up to The George IV, and this time they are joined by Afrobeat veteran Dele Sosimi. Expect West African highlife, jazz funk and plenty of serious Afrobeat from a band of musicians with a long track record on groundbreaking albums.
Sosimi played keyboards with Fela's Egypt 80 from 1979 to 1986, appearing on several of the period's key recordings, and later co-founded Positive Force with Femi Kuti. The group is led from the front by Ed Emeka Keazor, and the lineup also features drummer Yoann Julliard, guitarist Jake Elkan, bassist Mike Idowu and saxophonist Ayo Odia.
