Santrofi are a Ghanian highlife group who formed in 2019. The members have played in the bands of countless Ghanaian artists including Ebo Taylor, Pat Thomas, Gyedu-Blay Ambolley, AK Yeboah and AB Crentsil.
They have also collaborated with Ghana’s popular new stars jamming and recording with the likes of Kidi, Yaw Tog, AratheJay and Black Sherif.

“Santrofi intend to stir the soul as well as the body... they are the torch bearers for Ghana’s home grown art form, and the flame burns hot and bright.” - Songlines
