Amayo's (of Antibalas) Fu Arkestra presents: FU-Yeah Yeah 2009, Chapter 2, West Turns East As South Kisses North

Show Description

"Everything about the Fu-Arkist-Ra is unique, but their instrumentation is definitely something….. a churning bass line and multi-layered percussion combined with off beat cello and keyboard lines. It was like an afrobeat score to a scary movie."
-Mark Amigone

Amayo presents a short spiritual musical show integrating The FU Chinese Lion Dance, FU Afrobeat music, and the ORISHAS of the Yoruba and Edo culture, celebrating our oneness.  Amayo's Fu Arkestra is an Afrobeat blend of African spiritual and Chinese rhythms, funk, highlife and jazz infused with political messages. Amayo is largely known in the U.S. and abroad for his work with the acclaimed group Antibalas.
