- A Funky Soulful Christmas: Michael Mwenso, The ShakesAdded by the promoter or venue
About the show
It’s holiday season and what better way of getting into the mood than joining Michael Mwenso and his outrageously brilliant band, The Shakes, for a celebration of community and love with a soulful twist on Christmas classics.
Led by the wonderfully charismatic Mwenso, and featuring an exceptional line-up of jazz musicians and vocalists from New York and London (including a dancer!), this concert promises to bring to life an Afrofuturistic Winter Wonderland, marking Mwenso’s long-awaited return to Bristol after at least a decade!
Be prepared for some fantastic new arrangements of Christmas classics such as Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, Santa Claus Is Coming To Town, Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer…plus some of the Shakes’ original anthemic music too.
Featuring
Michael Mwenso

Most frequently, Mwenso performs as leader (or ringleader) of Michael Mwenso and The Shakes.
