Grupo Lokito at Jamboree, London
About the show
Friday night at Jamboree with the fantastic Grupo Lokito, purveyors of a floor-filling mix of Congolese and Cuban sounds, featuring sweet, soulful vocals, ringing guitar and the swinging salsa piano of bandleader Sara McGuinness!
Featuring - Grupo Lokito
Grupo Lokito fuses contemporary Congolese and Latin music creating a modern day cocktail of two of the great world musics.
Formed in 2006 by British Latin pianist Sara McGuinness and Congolese singer Jose Hendrix Ndelo, Grupo Lokito’s musicians area mix of Congolese, Latin and British artists who have chosen to make London their home.
Lokito’s energetic front-line of singers are true performers, and when the groove steps up a notch in the blistering salsa and seben sections, their outlandish dancing has to be seen to be believed.
