About this Event

So a new season of Bossaphonik awaits! Check out all forthcoming March – August dates at www.bossaphonik.com



Next up, another band totally new to Bossaphonik – on Friday 11th March we will witness K.O.G. And The Zongo Brigade!



The band are an explosive force of Afrobeat, Afro-soul and reggae music. A 9 piece whirlwind of energy, they are led by K.O.G. Of Accra, Ghana playing diverse Afro-fusion sounds. On the night they will be travelling for our dancing pleasure from Sheffield where they are based.



Last year 2015 they won a talent competition involving 6000 bands and earned themselves a set at Glastonbury's huge West Holt stage. Now a much in demand band with a fast-growing profile, they will electrify The Cellar with their fierce rhythm section, scorching horns, Afro guitars, jazzy keys and spirited vocals.
