- Charli XCX
The collective of African and Western musicians known as the Africa Express will be heading to the UK in September to play a very special show at Granary Square on September 8.
The full Africa Express line up is yet to be announced, but you can expect to see the likes of Amadou & Mariam, Damon Albarn, Rokia Traore, Kano, Baloji, Charli XCX, Fatoumata Diarawa, Noisettes, Jupiter & Okwess International and Jack Steadman of Bombay Bicycle Club. As with every Africa Express happening, the event will be unrehearsed and unapologetic.
Africa Express tickets are on sale now via Eventim.
