The Atomic Bomb Band - Plays the Music of William Onyeabor - LP

Limited LP-Only Edition

After years of putting out the music of the late William Onyeabor — who never performed his songs live himself — Luaka Bop assembled a band to play his catalog on stage, then captured the group performing it live in the studio. The result celebrates Onyeabor's music rather than competing with the originals. Featured players include Jamie Lidell, Alexis Taylor (Hot Chip), Luke Jenner (The Rapture), Charles Lloyd, Money Mark (Beastie Boys), Pat Mahoney (LCD Soundsystem), Ahmed Gallab (Sinkane), Jas Walton & Jordan McLean (Antibalas), Lekan Babalola, Kofo the Wonderman and more.
