Dele Sosimi has been at the heart of the global Afrobeat scene December 1995. His blend of complex funk grooves, traditional Nigerian music, African percussion and an underlying sense of jazz combines with his virtuoso keyboard skills and rhythmic singing to make him one of the most respected Afrobeat authorities of his era. London’s Jazz Café has said “we’re honored that for so long we’ve been able to call Jazz Café the home of Dele’s seminal afrobeat orchestra. “The love and passion I have for composing, writing, performing and teaching Afrobeat Music is my main motivation,” says Dele, adding; “my aim is to build upon the rich heritage of music worldwide by creating opportunities for young people to learn.”
