Konkolo Orchestra is a Zürich/Switzerland based project initiated by multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer Alexis Malefakis.
With strong jazzy afrobeat and highlife references, Konkolo Orchestra pays homage to musical innovators such as Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Tony Oladipo Allen, Ebo Taylor and many more.This first album continues the warm, vibrant, percussive motif of the hugely popular “Blue G.” single of 2022.
As Gilles Peterson wrote : “One of the big tunes of the year came from Konkolo Orchestra.” For those who like their music to inspire journey and movement, this album is the equivalent of gatecrashing a wedding party where even granny can get her groove on.Presented by Norwich Arts Centre.This is a 14+ event
