Malika Collective is a London ensemble led by guitarist George Risk, with George Garford on saxophone and flute, Henry Lawry on keys, Nee Mantse on bass, Salim Akki on drums and Samuel Owusu on percussion. Their sound blends jazz improvisation with Afrobeat, soul, blues and dance grooves, layered with synths and effects for a hip, energetic mashup of old and new. Worth seeing for the band's live reworking of their singles "Risky Bizz", "Dwell" and "Tide", plus new material from their forthcoming album "Never Knowing".
