Shared via AddThis

tribute to FELA Kuti Kaleta and Akoya Afrobeat

Hey everybody, we will be performing and hanging out on the great radio show Transpacific Sound Paradise on WFMU this Saturday, February 9th starting at 7pm.

We've got three ways to listen:

91.1 FM (NYC area)
90.1 FM (Hudson Valley area)
wfmu.org (live stream)

Hope you can check it out.

That's right friends, we have uploaded a few songs from our NEW album, due to come out early next year. These tracks are just snippets, so you will have to get the entire album to hear the songs in their entirety. As a special treat we have reggae superstar Cedric Im Brooks playing tenor saxophone on Je Je.

Enjoy!

We're taking a short August hiatus to finish the album, compose, organize and rest up for an active fall when everyone is back in town. Safe travels, cool runnings and a decidedly festive summer to you all!

Peace, Love, and Afrobeat,

The Akoya Family
