About this Event
Infused by fundamental elements of Ghanian Highlife from the 70s, Jembaa Groove has its own take on a number of influences that goes far beyond just trying to imitate the greats that came before. The band consists of former band members of Tony Allen, Ebo Taylor, Pat Thomas and Orlando Julius. Playing and recording with these legends of Highlife and Afrobeat for decades surely shaped their perception of sound.
Inviting legendary Ghanian multi-instrumentalist and producer Kwame Yeboah (Kwashibu Area Band) to record and co-create on this album was an intended step, as the bandleaders were looking for a certain authentic sonic element they knew would blend with the band's sound. With K.O.G on „Sweet my ear“ and Gyedu Blay Ambolley on „Agya“ the album features two other important figures of the contemporary Ghanian Highlife scene.
