The Seben Brothers

Congolese dance music, played by eight people who know exactly what it's for. The Seben Brothers work in soukous and rumba, the guitar-driven styles that have been filling floors across central Africa for decades, and they bring the same job to Melbourne rooms. It's fast, it's melodic, and it doesn't really allow for sitting down. Book them if you want a night with proper rhythm section muscle behind it rather than a playlist with an African tag on it.
