Bringing together the finest West African session musicians on the planet, the inimitable London Astrobeat Orchestra present a night of iconic music by Talking Heads. Following sell-out performances at The Jazz Cafe in London, the Orchestra pick up the strong afrobeat currents that run through the Talking Heads back-catalogue and recreate tracks from cult albums like ‘Remain In The Light’ and ‘Speaking in Tongues’. Razor-sharp and effortlessly funky, this unique performance will feature Lingala singers, Senegalese percussionist Badou N’Diaye and legendary band-leader Edd Bateman.
