Four dates in October, and the man himself is a member here.
Seun Anikulapo Kuti and Egypt 80 have four US dates confirmed for October.
| Date | City | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| Wed 7 October | Solana Beach, California | Belly Up Tavern |
| Fri 9 October | Los Angeles, California | Regent Theater |
| 9–11 October | Mayer, Arizona | FORM Arcosanti |
| Wed 14 October | New York City | Webster Hall |
Egypt 80 is not a backing band. It is the band Fela built, still playing, with his son in front of it. Seun took it over at fourteen and has not put it down since. A room with that horn section in it is a different kind of night.
If you have never seen what that looks like, this is the whole thing — a full set, live, no edits:

Seun is on CelebIsland as @Bigbirdkuti.
If you are in any of those cities, the island wants to hear about it. Post from the show. We will carry the best of it.
