What Heat

Bokante: the fresh new group founded by Michael League of Snarky Puppy. A supergroup of players from five countries and four continents, different genders, races and generations working in harmony, celebrating individuality, united in the belief that music should be a voice for the voiceless. The Metropole Orkest is a Nethelands-based hybrid ensemble, part jazz big band, part symphony orchestra, led English conductor Jules Buckley. The message delivered by these two determinedly aware and musically gifted outfits, is laced throughout new album What Heat – and it is urgent. Injustice is raging all around. Look. Notice. Wake up. For fans of Snarky Puppy, Oumou Sangaré, Buena Vista Social Club, Les Amazones d’Afrique, Anjelique Kidjo, Ghost-Note, Bill Laurence, Afro jazz, World Music.
