Yaaba Funk

Formed in Brixton, the core members met on the London African drum and dance scene in the 1990s where they studied with master musicians from Africa, Brazil and the USA. Inspired by a musical love of all African and in particular of Ghana, the collective coalesced and with numerous, dynamic live performances plus an acclaimed debut album under their belt, they are now a pivot of the triving UK-African scene. On My Vote Dey Count, their 2nd album, finds the group in fine form and drawing upon the rich pool of London-based musicians, it cover all aspects of this proudly-indepenedent scene. Afrobeat, Hi-Life and Solid African Funk!
