Description
**The UK’s largest festival of African music and culture presents three of the continent's most exciting artists: Patoranking, Ghorwane and Kizaba.**
Three of Africa's most exciting artists take to our stage. Curated in partnership with Liverpool’s pioneering Africa Oyé festival: a long-running celebration of sounds and styles from across Africa and the diaspora.
Headlining is **Patoranking**, the Nigerian superstar, whose style’s rooted in Afrobeat but has expanded to embrace influences from reggae and R&B, not to mention collaborations with numerous high-profile African and international artists from Diamond Platnumz and Kizz Daniel, to Major Lazer, Ludacris and Popcaan.
**Ghorwane** bring their masterly take on marrabenta – dance music from Mozambique, blending traditional dance rhythms with Portuguese folk influences.
**Kizaba** channels the Congolese tradition of La Sape, following in the stylish footsteps of Papa Wemba, building on his rumba-rock heritage to craft a modern Afro-Electro-Pop.
Presented by The Barbican.
