Lamisi

27 juni, 21:00 - 28 juni, 00:00
Lamisi Rotterdam

Lamisi’s powerful, soulful voice bridges traditional northern Ghanaian rhythms with contemporary sounds, creating an Afro-fusion pop that is both ancient and brand new. Inspired by the music of Miriam Makeba, Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan and Angelique Kidjo, she thus makes a powerful and important contribution to feminist music.

From leading The Patch Bay Band across Ghana to lighting up global stages, Lamisi’s voice carries more than just melodies; it carries purpose. She’s on a mission to uplift young girls in Northern Ghana, where cultural traditions often sideline them in favour of their male counterparts. In a region where education for girls is still a battle, she stands as a role model, using her platform to break cycles and build futures.

Lamisi’s latest album, Let Us Clap, is a bold tribute to the sisterhood of her homeland. Deep in Northern Ghana, women and girls have long kept time with intricate handclaps and harmonised chants—an age-old folkloric tradition pulsing with polyrhythms and ancestral melodies. This isn’t just music; it’s history, passed down through generations, raw and untouched.
