Congolese-tilted Afro-Soul-Folk to make your heart soar and your body groove! This is genre-bending and timeless music.

British-Congolese singer and multi-instrumentalist Liz Ikamba plays songs from her debut EP ‘Mama’, with support from Djenzuzu Mbira & Sax.

Liz was born in DRC and came to the UK with her family as a young child. With much of her family also emigrating to different corners of the globe, she grew up with a ‘global awareness’ of a multitude of musical and cultural influences, which over the years fed into her artistic and musical output.

Cross-pollinating influences from Folk and Jazz to Reggae, Hip Hop and Soul; these songs speak from Liz’s experience as a mixed-heritage woman and artist living in the UK. They tell a personal and intimate story of identity, culture and belonging, and offer reflections on love, loss and life-learnings. The title track ‘Mama’, and the first song Liz wrote in Lingala, is dedicated to Liz’s late mother Georgina, who travelled to the Congo to live and work as a midwife.

Expect groove-driven riffs and sun-fuelled rhythms, loop-pedal experiments and soul-infused vocals; with catchy hooks and harmonies in both English and Lingala. This is set to be an intimate, interactive and energising experience to remember.
