The explosive afro-futurist collective ONIPA – fronted by the irresistible singer and percussionist K.O.G – bring their high-octane live show to Band on the Wall!
Touring their latest album, the eclectic ‘Off the Grid’, ONIPA explore the history of dance music in ground-breaking new ways. Reaching into the historical depths of African dance rhythms all the way to today’s electronic dance music, they connect folklore and storytelling to rap, jazz and hip-hop.
ONIPA means ‘human’ in Akan, the ancient language of the Ashanti people of Ghana. It’s a message of connection through collaboration…isn’t that what music and dance is all about?
Artists on stage: 8.00pm
