Presented by Carabella Presents.


LOBOKO is a guitar-driven-dance-band from New York City that features Congolese guitar viruoso and vocalist, Yohni Djungu Sungu. Yohni has performed with legends of Congolese music Fally Ipupa, Soukous Stars and Zaiko Langa Langa. In 2019 he founded Loboko alongside drummer, DJ and journalist Morgan Greenstreet. They will be supported by multi-instrumentalist and producer Nikhil Yerawadeckar, and acclaimed bassist Brice from Cote d'Ivoire.


DJ collective TERAPIA invoke the spirit of la verbena, playing specials from across the African diaspora: Congolese soukous, Nigerian highlife, champeta criolla, salsa, cumbia, mbaqanga, benga and more, mixed live with champeta style. Soukous —the ‘80s and ‘90s sound of the Congolese diaspora in Europe—made such an impact on the Caribbean coast of Colombia that DJ parties continue to play Congolese music today and it deeply influenced the local popular music genre “champeta criolla.” This Sunday Terapia will consist of Sonido Monarca , Modrums, and Pocho100.


Don't miss! It's gonna heat up to summer again for a few hours!
