Samba Sene and Diwan + Makossa

A double bill of the best African sounds from Scotland – an evening of exuberant afrobeat, mbalax, ska, reggae dance grooves. Samba Sene and Diwan is an eclectic mix of musicians, led by charismatic Dakar-born singer Samba Sene. The music is a thrilling fusion of funky mbalax/afrobeat grooves, with undercurrents of ska, rock and Senegalese soul. **** (Scotsman). **** (BroadwayBaby.com). Makossa is a long-standing Edinburgh institution, a feel-good band, led by Peter Akyeampong, with influences from African to Latin, funk, reggae and classic rock. All with a West African flavour.
