AfroSync for Festivals
Festival stages, cultural events and outdoor programmes that need a live act with genuine roots and real energy. AfroSync brings Afrobeat, jazz and reggae to the stage with a sound built to move a crowd.
Made for a crowd
Horn-driven, percussion-heavy and relentless. The kind of set that pulls people in and keeps the field moving.
Cultural depth
A lineage that runs from Fela Kuti through jazz and reggae, played by musicians who mean it.
Stage-ready
Comfortable with festival production, technical riders and tight changeovers.
A festival slot is won or lost in the first two numbers. A field of half-committed passers-by will either drift or stay, and AfroSync is built to make them stay. Horn-driven, percussion-heavy and relentless, the set pulls people in from the edges and holds a crowd that arrived for someone else entirely.
Programmers and stage managers care as much about reliability as about the show. AfroSync is comfortable with festival production, works to a technical rider and hits tight changeover windows without drama. The band arrives ready, communicates cleanly with your stage crew, and gets on and off on schedule so the running order stays intact.
The music carries genuine weight behind the energy. A lineage that runs from Fela Kuti through jazz and reggae is played by musicians who mean it, with marimba, mbira and talking drum bringing colour that a covers act cannot. For cultural programmes and outdoor bills, that authenticity is what makes the set land.

Good to know
Your questions, answered.
- Can you work to our technical rider and stage times?
- Yes. We are comfortable with festival production, provide our own rider and work to yours, and hit tight changeover windows. We arrive ready, coordinate with your stage crew and get on and off on schedule so the running order holds.
- What does your set draw on?
- A living lineage that runs from Fela Kuti through jazz to reggae and soul, played by musicians who carry it rather than imitate it. Marimba, mbira and talking drum add colour, giving a festival crowd something with genuine roots behind the energy.
- Are you insured and certified for outdoor stages?
- Yes. We are fully insured with ten million pounds public liability and our equipment is PAT certified, both of which festival organisers and production teams typically require before you are cleared to load in and play.
