Santrofi is a dynamic collective of eight talented young musicians from Accra, brought together by bassist and producer Emmanuel Ofori, known for his work with highlife legend Ebo Taylor and Pat Thomas's Kwashibu Area Band. Their aim is to celebrate classic Highlife music in all its variations and influenced styles, from early Afro-Cuban and calypso influences to funky soul rhythms and the Nigerian influences of Afrobeat and juju grooves.
Five years after their acclaimed debut album 'Alewa', Santrofi are back with a new album recorded and mixed by four-time Grammy Award winner Jerry Boys (REM, Ali Farka Touré, Buena Vista Social Club, Orchestra Baobab, Kronos Quartet). Making Moves' is both a celebration of Santrofi's roots and a leap into the future of highlife. Indeed, on the album they collaborate with several artists from Ghana's afrobeats and trap scene, such as Kofi Jar and Ara.
The title track is about surviving the sometimes crazy streets of Accra without losing your head ("Life has never been easy, so keep moving", reads the first sentence).
So buy a ticket and come and dance at the AB Club!
