Upcoming project is "Aurelia och Vodouorkestern" -in collaboration with dance hall/afrobeat, reggae and folkfusion artist Aurelia Dey. The music is being composed autumn 2023/beginning of 2024. Lyrics on relevant topics, the music showcase a mix of old and new. Focusing on identity, inner-self, spirituality and humanity beyond skin colour. All set up in a context inspired by traditional west african ceremonies. Partly aspiring to reach young/teenage audience, concerts are planned 3, 4, 5, 6 April 2024 at Teater Reflex, Kärrtorp, Stockholm. Some of the tickets can be booked through KULAN.
