Baba Ali

This event took place on Thursday, March 17, 2022 at 1:00 AM UTC.

Location: British Music Embassy @ Cedar Street Courtyard Few artists succeed in mapping their musical journey quite as vividly as Baba Ali, and even fewer do so with such resolute resistance to pigeonholing. Baba Ali began in 2017 as a solo project by the Fort Lee, NJ-native and the music traces a lifetime of influences from 80s synth-funk, to New York No Wave, to Berlin’s underground club scene and finally the experimental punk spirit of Baba Ali’s current base in London. After relocating from New York to London, Baba Ali has since been joined by British guitarist Nik Balchin. The new collaboration resulted in the February 2020 release,This House, an eclectic four-track collection fusing funk, blues and soul, and featuring production from Jamie Hince of The Kills.
