YORUBA ODYSSEY

Nigerian singer, guitarist and composer Adédèjì Adetayo presents a powerful fusion of afrobeat, jazz-funk, soul and Yoruba tradition, deeply connected to the sound and energy of Lagos.

Throughout his career, he has shared stages and recording sessions with artists such as Tony Allen, Lionel Loueke, Gene Jackson, Keziah Jones, Paco Sery and Fred Wesley, and has opened concerts for figures including Manu Dibango and Kenny Garrett.

With Yoruba Odyssey, recorded at Lagos’ historic Afrodisia/Decca Studios, Adédèjì returns to his roots with vibrant, sophisticated music full of groove.
