African Composers Series - JUWON OGUNGBE

Event information

Nigerian-British pianist and singer Juwon Ogungbe is one of the stars of UK-African music. Juwon Ogungbe blazes his own path in a wide range of settings - from the afro-soul-funk of his band, to his choral work with The Vocal Ensemble of Africa.

Returning from Richmond Virginia, USA where he has spent the last few months writing songs for his next CD and performing in a series of shows, he will play new material from this trip as well as songs from his current CD “Life Force Music”, which showcases a writer of songs of great depth driven by the infectious rhythms of his Yoruba-Nigerian roots.
