La Rumba presents: Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Orchestra, Pangaea, Aroop Roy, Yak

After over a year of sell out shows around Sheffield, we've put together a very special multi-genre lineup like no other for our first event of the academic year. This time we're at Yellow Arch Studios for a combination of live acts and DJs from across the globe and musical spectrum. It's with a great pleasure to welcome the legendary Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Orchestra for an extended live set to headline the party. The 10-man band, led by Dele Sosimi, one of the globe's most influential Afrobeat artists, has been touring the world over spreading their infectious African-Electronic rhythms everywhere from Gottwood Festival & Dimensions Festival, to sold-out shows at Albert Hall, The Jazz Cafe and a Boiler Room set. Joining them will be Aroop Roy, who's rise to success shows no sign of stopping, with support from the likes of Giles Peterson, Detroit Swindle, Atjazz and more. Headlining the Warehouse, hosted by Pretty Pretty Good, Hessle Audio's Pangaea will be performing an extended set of forward-thinking electronic music. Expect blends of UK-Bass, House, Techno, Breaks and more into what can only be distinguished as the Hessle Audio sound we've come to know & love. Joining Pangaea will be upcoming talent and PPG Co-Founder, Yak, whose list of performances includes supporting the likes of Or:la, Joe and rRoxymore is just as impressive as the list of artists who support his own music; namely Joy O, Hunee, Ben UFO and more. With highly acclaimed releases, both previous and upcoming, this performance will not be one to miss.
