JEKAJO SESSIONS!
In association with Péchés Mignons & Funky Dubby. The Wande presents
JEKAJO SESSIONS featuring Benin City & Inc.A (LIVE).
London five-piece BENIN CITY are an unstoppable force of funked-up nature and they’re heading your way! BENIN CITY are two vocalists, drums, bass and saxophone, who blaze a mashed up trail of hip hop, funk and jazz with a twist of afrobeat. They’re spinning out to Wales for the very first time, following highly rated London shows at Cargo, Soho Revue Bar and the South Bank Centre, and the release of a fantastic new E.P “Get some Invisible Cake!”
“I love this band!…They’re tearing the roof off!” – Craig Charles, BBC6 Music
“Woah nelly…incredible!…they make me want to be young again!” – Mark Lamarr, BBC Radio 2
“Benin City mash up experience, fun and wisdom..Will make you laugh and cry while shaking your booty…Have dazzled as guests on my Xfm X-Posure show.” – John Kennedy, Xfm

Supporting Benin City will be the wonderfully diverse – Inc.A
Expect anything and everything from these experimental redefiners of boundaries. Whether their mood is for gypsy jazz folk or Electro-Orchestral funk, their sound will be magically baffling. With Special Guest ‘REDEYE’ (Sule Rimi)
