“Abdication” — the act of stepping down from power — becomes a rallying cry in this high-energy Afrobeat track, blending sharp brass, complex rhythms, and the unmistakable political pulse of the genre. From Fela Kuti to modern movements, Afrobeat has always been music with a message — and ABDICATION carries that flame forward with fire, groove, and intent.
Known for their melting pot of reggae rhythms, ska horns, summer dance vibes, and big community energy, This Way Orkestra brings together a powerhouse lineup of Canberra musicians who turn every show into a street party. Their sound is infectious, layered, and built for the dance floor — with a social heart beating under every beat.
Expect a night of deep rhythm, soaring horns, and communal joy. A full-bodied live set, special guests, and a dance floor ready for revolution.
