Liquid Sun Orchestra (LSO) is a multi-piece outfit that plays a hypnotic mix of funky afrobeat and swinging soul jazz. After some personnel changes, the band now seems to have found its definitive form.
Inspired by the legendary Fela Kuti, LSO not only combines traditional African rhythms with influences from American funk and jazz, but also incorporates elements from rock, soul, Latin, reggae and hiphop. The result is a catchy, danceable sound that combines complex rhythms with powerful brass arrangements and lyrics that often address social and political issues.
LSO has previously been playing at festivals such as Zwarte Cross, Soulfest Antwerp, Surfana Festival, Peel Slowly And See and Gentse Feesten.
A digital EP with new material will be released in early December 2024.
