Zongo Junction is generating a well-deserved buzz in New York City’s burgeoning afro-beat scene. The ensemble blends West African rhythms with funk, jazz, and soul. True to their inspiration, Nigerian superstar, political activist and afro-beat pioneer Fela Anikulapo Kuti, the outfit excites dance floors wherever they perform.
