Afrobeat-inspired rock-funk-psych juggernaut Agbeko are stopping off at the Peckham Levels bar this December as part of their 2023 UK tour.
Drawing as equally from Fela Kuti and Mulatu Astatke as they do from Led Zeppelin and Woody Guthrie, Agbeko are the perfect soundtrack for current times - calling out corruption and pulling towards societal change with an onslaught of horns, irresistible grooves and powerful lyrics.
Agbeko live shows are something to behold, causing dance floors to erupt across the UK festival circuit, from Green Man and Wilderness to Boomtown and Secret Garden Party. We can’t wait for them to do the same here at Peckham Levels!...
