Some say they play ‘hybrid jazz’, or ‘Ethio-dub-jazz’... Could be right, yes. Well, they like to keep things groovy and psychedelic. That’s a fact. And they love these ancient sounds. And these wicked oriental/East-African scales and melodies. Black Flower likes to mix things up. Shake it hard. And see what the result is. They have four releases since 2014, and gained the support of the international music scene. Influencers such as Gilles Peterson, LeFto, The Gaslamp Killer have expressed their support and Black Flower was selected by several showcase festivals such as Eurosonic (2015) and Womex (2017). Their third album ‘Future Flora’ is released by Sdban Records.
