Seun Kuti & Egypt 80

When Seun Kuti, the youngest son of the Nigerian legend of Afrobeat and political protest Fela Kuti, comes to the Afro-Latino Festival, he'll be leading on to the stage his father's Egypt 80 band, veterans of a quarter-century of Afrobeat nights. The young Seun was only 8 when his famous father let him join his legendary Egypt 80 and after Fela's death in 1997, Seun became bandleader at the age of 15 ! So, it took a few years before he finished his first album "Many Things"... in 2008. Only one album but so much more experience, power and tradition, this will be a hot afrobeat night to remember at the Afro-Latino Festival.
