Orchestra Baobab

10th May 2024

One of Africa’s greatest bands, adored both at home in Senegal and across the world, Baobab occupy a special place in the history of African music.

Their epic story begins in the heart of Dakar’s Medina and now extends across the world and into the 21st century. With a brilliant assembly of diverse musical personalities, their sound is a unique blend of Afro-Latin styles, international pop, West African griot music, and an after-dark West African nightclub ambience of lilting, mellifluous rhythms.

2020 marked their 50th anniversary and we’re excited for them to join us as part of this milestone tour – expect high energy and plenty of dancing!
