Event Information


 The Afrobiotics (6-piece Band)

The Afrobiotics play Afrobeat but not as you’ve heard before. Listeners will recognize the familiar undulating interwoven rhythms and fiery energy, but also discover a more intimate and collaborative sound incorporating Sabar rhythms from Senegal.

Founded as a side-project from the much-larger Public Opinion Afro Orchestra, The Afrobiotics began as a way of writing new material and getting inside the sounds of Afrobeat, but it didn’t take long for the six musicians to discover they had found something unique and special - a sheer love of playing together in a much more intimate setting, creating a more well-rounded dialog and the interplay between each other. Where the Public Opinion delivers a dynamic and captivating show, The Afrobiotics is less sensory and more spiritual.

Out of this fertile foundation, Senegalese multi-instrumentalist Lamine Sonko began introducing the Sabar to the group, resulting in music reminiscent of Afrobeat but with more melodic twists and turns.

 Asanti Beats ( 5 piece Band)

Music, drumming, dancing, and yoga's phenomenal acrobatic show!
Asanti Beats is a new band led by renowned dancer and musician Appiah Annan, the band takes you on a musical journey of funk, jazz, and percussion, inspired by ancient rituals and honoring ancestral values. Weaving traditional and contemporary music, blending melodic sounds of the kora with the raw, rhythmic beat of the drums, the band uses the music to tell stories of everyday life, love, wisdom, and peace, reminding us of the importance of connection and celebrating who we are as a rich and diverse Australian community.

Yoga delivers an unforgettable high energy phenomenal acrobatic show
