Afrobeat Continuum w. Nomo (Live)

Broken Yolk is proud to launch ‘AFROBEAT CONTINUUM’. A festival night showcasing variations in new Afrobeat - A free spirited party where the atmosphere presides.

Heading the bill are NOMO, over from the US to present their brand new masterpiece Invisible Cities. This is the only UK appearance of their European tour.

NOMO truly are a party band of the highest order. Spinning spiritual jazz, they have developed their own form of celebratory dance music and they're not unknown to perform it in marathon two-hour sets. Traveling with horns and guitars stuffed on top of their amps this eight-piece-sonic-arsenal pack a pretty heavy punch.

Eardrum play in support. The band's heavy polyrhythmic business makes them one of the foremost exponents of a loose-based movement. They fuse the percussive elements of west Africa alongside the electronic chaos of urban London.

The Bonsai Big Band root this night and there is certainly nothing small about their organic, meticulously clipped sound. They play with echoes of Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea mingling with Ethiopiques Jazz Ensembles.

DJs ‘til late.
