Ibibio Sound Machine are one of the most compelling and forward-thinking bands emerging from the UK scene – a genre-defying afro-futurist collective blending West African rhythms, electronic textures, disco, post-punk and global club energy into a sound that’s as powerful on record as it is explosive live.
Formed in London in 2013 around the magnetic vocals of British-Nigerian frontwoman Eno Williams and co-founder Max Grunhard, the 8-piece ensemble have built a formidable body of work and a loyal global following.
Their discography spans 5 critically-acclaimed albums that showcase their evolution from afro-electronic innovators to dancefloor commanders.
