Nubiyan Twist embark on a fresh musical odyssey, lead by Tom Excell & Aziza Jaye, with their vibrant fourth album 'Find Your Flame’ (3 May 2024)
Over 12 tracks, the band seamlessly weaves together global grooves, soul and jazz; expertly intertwined with electronic elements, horn-led melodies and spontaneous improvisation.
The album marks a significant evolution for the group as they welcome Sheffield-based vocalist Aziza Jaye to the forefront, adding a fresh dimension of Patois and RnB to their sound.
The heady, sun-drenched release is peppered with impressive collaborations, including musical legends Nile Rodgers and Seun Kuti who bring their trademark disco and afrobeat mastery to tracks ‘Lights Out’ and ‘Carry Me’ respectively.
Since forming in 2011 at the Leeds College of Music, Nubiyan Twist have risen to become one of the leading groups in the fertile UK music scene. Known for their eclectic blend of styles and powerful sound, the virtuosic nine-piece band’s thrilling exploration of tight musicianship and infectious grooves have consistently mesmerised audiences.
Their self-titled debut album (2015) and acclaimed ‘Jungle Run’ ( 2019) led to their third massive album ‘Freedom Fables’, released on Strut in March 2021. The album was heavily playlisted on BBC 6 Music alongside live sessions with Gilles Peterson, Mary Anne Hobbs and Jamie Cullum on BBC Radio 2, plus their UK TV debut on Later…with Jools Holland.
