SIWO (Afrofuturismo)

Description

SIWO (Afrofuturism)

Siwo is the alter ego of Simonal Bie, a producer, vocalist, beat-maker and dancer of Mozambican origin. Simonal is considered one of the pioneers in promoting the Afrobeat scene at a national level, for having founded the mythical Afro-Funk band Moya Kalongo 10 years ago. Later, in 2016 he created Nu Epoque, a Nu soul and electronic band with strong influences from J Dilla and Fela Kuti. Siwo is the culmination of these projects in a more personal venture, in which he explores his identity as a multi-disciplinary artist from the African diaspora. After releasing his solo EP Stand For, Siwo describes his sound as ''afrofuturistic electronica with hints of hip hop, punk, soul and afrobeat''. His explosive live performances accentuate his versatility as a musician, producer and performer. 9:00 p.m. Advance €8 - Box office €10
