Konkolo Orchestra
Hootananny Brixton, SW2 1DF , [Venue Details]Vintage Roots, Future Sounds: Konkolo Orchestra return to London
After electrifying a packed house last year, Konkolo Orchestra is set to return to London with their signature blend of hypnotic rhythms and irresistible groove.
Formed in 2024 in Zurich, Switzerland, by drummer and composer Alexis Malefakis and fronted by South African vocalist Nongoma Ndlovu, Konkolo Orchestra is a 11-piece collective united by their love for rhythm and flow. Their music draws on the Afrobeat traditions of West Africa while incorporating elements of jazz, rock, and dub, creating a sound that is both rooted and forward-looking.
Their debut album, Future Pasts (Rocafort Records), propelled the band onto the international stage, including a debut at the Montreux Jazz Festival 2024, and established them as a rising force.
“With Konkolo Orchestra, our aim is to create music that radiates positive energy and resonates on a deeper level,” says founder Alexis Malefakis. “It’s inspiring to see how many people connect with our sound — apparently, there’s something about more than 10 people flowing and moving together on stage that really resonates.”
