SEUN KUTI AND EGYPT 80

Join us for an evening with Seun Kuti and his renowned band, Egypt 80, as they bring their exhilarating and powerful Afrobeat sound to the Northcote Theatre. Seun Kuti, the youngest son of legendary musician Fela Kuti, has carried on his father's revolutionary legacy with a modern twist. Since taking over as the leader of Egypt 80 in 1997, Seun has become a prominent voice in contemporary African music, blending traditional Afrobeat rhythms with contemporary influences to create a sound that is both timeless and refreshingly new.

Egypt 80, composed of some of the finest musicians in the genre, provides the perfect backdrop for Seun's explosive performances. Known for their intricate polyrhythms, powerful brass sections, and driving percussions, the band creates an immersive musical experience that is both deeply rooted in tradition and innovatively forward-looking. Supported by Alárìíyá, best known for their high energy party vibes, delivering a sweet blend of afro-jazz funk rhythms – previously described by TheMusic.com.au as “steaming hot…to have you elevated to the height of happiness”.
