Agbeko

𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙋𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙎𝙖𝙮, the latest album from Agbeko, is due for release on ​23 October 2026 on vinyl LP and digital. Lead single 𝘒𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘏𝘰𝘸 out 21 July.

Mancunian powerhouse Agbeko have been erupting dancefloors across Europe since first taking the stage in 2016. Inspired by the lineage of Afrobeat from Fela Kuti through to Antibalas via modern-day psychedelia of The Heliocentrics and The Shaolin Afronauts, Agbeko write their own chapter uniquely combining Ethio-jazz, British Protest Song and a penchant for the raucous. Penned by Jamie Stockbridge and borne by a virtuosic, double-digit collective featuring front-women Amber Kuti & Mali Hayes, their music soundtracks a congregation revelling upon a world on the brink.

Agbeko's songs call out corruption and embolden the collective pull towards change and healing in our times. Channelled through an onslaught of horns, driven grooves, moving lyrics and cathartic soloing, their music speaks out against irresponsible leadership and humanitarian crises, while promoting fairness and acceptance .
