African Soul Rebels Special: Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 on UK tour 13-21 April 2011

The rave reviews for his fantastic debut album Many Things (2008) proved Seun Kuti had fully emerged as an artist with the power and range to take on that epic Afrobeat legacy left by his father Fela. Performing with Fela’s original band Egypt 80 (as he has done since the age of 8), Seun Kuti comes to tour the UK for an African Soul Rebels Special in April 2011. Look out for a blazing show, and his new album in spring 2011 too.
