Lack of Afro and Greg Blackman equals funk & soul gold.
2023’s ‘Loving Arms’ raised the roof and smashed setlists to smithereens with its soaring horns and rousing, all-in-together vocals, becoming a fixture on the BBC 6 Music playlist off the back of extensive championing from Craig Charles and described as “an absolute triumph” by Lauren Laverne.
‘Loving Arms’ would also charm the audiences of BBC Radio 2’s Jo Whiley and Trevor Nelson, the figurehead for Lack of Afro’s critically acclaimed ‘Square One’ LP (“ridiculously infectious, big-hearted and joyful” – Clash magazine), serving as both a musical and personal return to the top of the funk & soul league from the South West’s multi-million streaming musician and soundtracker.
Following a successful return to the live arena in 2024 and keeping ears open with two volumes of the ‘From The Volt’ series collecting rarities and re-ups, Lack of Afro is ready to go again. Warming hearts and revving the wheels on your rollerskates, ‘Make It Shine’ is a funk & soul beacon catching the glare of the glitterball: Greg Blackman’s smooth vocals are the cause for hip-hip-hoorays and Saturday night fever, and with its celebratory disco strings and guitars, the pair prove once again that music remains the answer.
Itching to retake the stage across the UK and Europe in his natural environment under the lights and wooing front rows, Lack of Afro announces largest ever tour across the country later this year supporting a new LP of fresh material, once again promising a funk & soul spectacle full of style and sparkle.
