About the event

Femi Kuti & The Positive Force
The revolutionary Femi Kuti & The Positive Force are gracing our stage Saturday, August 9th!

Femi Kuti has stood as a powerful voice for justice, carrying forward the revolutionary Afrobeat legacy pioneered by his father, Fela Kuti. Known for his unflinching critiques of political corruption and social inequality, Femi’s heady mix of funk, jazz and highlife has always been a tool for resistance and change.

Femi began his career as a member of Fela's legendary band, Egypt ’80, and briefly stepped into the role of frontman when his father was imprisoned on fabricated charges in 1984. In 1986 he left to create his own band, Positive Force, and has been forging his own style of Afrobeat ever since.
