Ijebu Pleasure Club takes you to Nigeria in 1987, where a small town Afrobeat band have just been told they need to play American top 40 hits to keep their nightclub gig. They don’t own any of the records, but they’re going to give it a try.

Mashing up the music you remember (and some that’s best forgotten) with the Nigerian funk style of Fela Kuti, and about a dozen musicians, this band will surprise and delight. But mostly, get you shaking it.

Ijebu Pleasure Club will show you that all pop music comes from mother-Africa.

Nuel Nonso Nwachukwu (vocals)
Ben McNicoll (baritone saxophone)
Sean Martin-Buss (trumpet, keyboards)
Jono Tan (trombone)
Shaun O'Kane (tenor saxophone)
Owen Johnston (tenor saxophone)
