On Saturday, December 19, Chicago Afrobeat Project will be performing at Martyrs’ on 3855 N. Lincoln Ave. in Chicago after a full Summer and Fall of extensive national touring. We’ve hit both coasts in the last several months and the band has solidified during the dozens of live shows.

Next weekend, to ice the cake, Bombay Beatbox (DJ Warp, Radiohiro) and Get Up With The Get Down (James Brown Tribute Band) will also be performing. It’s a long time coming to share the bill with Bombay Beatbox and we’re psyched to finally come together for our 1st Chicago performance with these legendary reps of the ‘Asian Massive’ Breaks sound. They’ve performed along with heavyweights such as Karsh Kale and other world music giants. You may have seen them individually as Radiohiro, or Matt Fusello (also of Radiohiro and MC Zulu), and DJ Warp–a.k.a. Brian Keigher. Long time friend Izzy’s band (Get Up With The Get Down) has been building a loyal following in the city and is sure to bring some heavy, driving funk to the evening in addition.

It’s going to be an intense night of music all around, not to mention a rare performance by CAbP in Chi-town, so dont miss it! $12 for 3 bands (in advance). Show starts at 9:30PM. Get your advance tickets online!

Kevin Ford of the Chicago Afrobeat Project is a Revolutionary Music recording artist as K Ford, Elev8tor and the VOLT MODZ.
