Featuring
Ubunye
Ubunye (‘one-ness’) unites singers hailing from KwaZulu Natal in South Africa with gospel and R’n’B musicians from Yorkshire, in an inspirational blend of jazz, Isigqi (traditional Zulu music) and Afro-pop. High energy African beats and traditional sounds morph into more contemporary African musical styles. Ubunye represents Leeds pianist Dave Evans’ long-lasting interest in South Africa and its music. He combines his jazz quartet with a trio of close harmony vocalists (South Africans from the Huddersfield area).

Liz Ikamba
Brighton-based singer and multi-instrumentalist Liz Ikamba cross pollinates musical and cultural influences to create her own brand of Afro-soul-folk. Fusing inspiration from Congo village roots to Jazz and Neosoul, as well as other diasporic music traditions, her songs speak from her experience as a woman of dual Congolese (DRC) and British heritage, immigrating to the UK and growing up there from a young age. Soul-infused harmonies, loop pedal improvisations, groove-driven riffs and beats are blended to create an intimate kind of folk music, with catchy lyrical hooks written in both English and Lingala.
