2025 was a good year for live African music for me, thanks entirely to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival

The festival featured:

Afrobeat from Seun Kuti and Eygpt 80. 

Thrilling music from Senegal with the great Youssou N'Dour.

Intense Afro-rock from Benin International Musical.

North African/electronica fusion from Zar Electrik.

Hopefully 2026 will be equally fruitful (though the cancellation of Orchestra Baobab from 2026 Big Ears Festival bodes ill).

In the meantime, a short concert from Jupiter & Okwess..
