AFRO JAZZ SKA REGGAE locals THIS WAY ORKESTRA return to the WTF Sessions @ the Canberra Irish Club!
Playing two sets of big band afrobeat, reggae, ethio-dub + more! And best of all it's FREE ENTRY for one and all!
THIS WAY ORKESTRA (bio)
This Way Orkestra is Canberra's very own enclave of Afrobeat + Ska + Reggae sounds - this 10-piece orchestra combines the mighty Afro-Funk of Nigeria's Fela Kuti with a tight brass section and jazz + ska grooves - heavy dancefloor energy at all times! From West Belconnen to West Africa and beyond, this musical collective will keep your nyash shaking!
Formed in 2012 by Nicholas Combe and Simon Milman - two stalwarts of the local jazz and reggae scene in Canberra - the band further evolved in 2019 with some new additions, including a frontman Jim Sharock on vocals and percussion - flexing new musical influences beyond ska and Afrobeat to include reggae, ethio-jazz, and dub.
