HudCo Presents is excited to welcome back Afrobeat masters Armo for an evening of insprired jams guaranteed to get you moving on the dance floor! Armo’s intimate and energetic sound focuses on classic and contemporary Afrobeat.Founded by longtime Antibalas bandmates, Armo creates spontaneous arrangements of the music of Fela Anikulapo Kuti, The Daktaris, Ebo Taylor, William Onyeabor, The Art Ensemble of Chicago, and original rhythm-based music. Armo features a revolving cast from the Daptone Records family and NY Afrobeat Scene, collectively the members of Armo have performed thousands of concerts around the world working with such luminaries as David Byrne, Angelique Kidjo, Public Enemy, TV on The Radio, Sharon Jones & The Dapkings, Ornette Coleman, and in the band for the Tony Award winning musical FELA! From its inception Afrobeat has been a music of resistance. The music of Fela Anikulapo Kuti has historic ties to the civil rights movement in the United States, and the importance of art in fueling social movements is as vital as ever.
