Europe’s best Afro-Funk combo, the Flammer Dance Band, is coming on tour

08.12.2024

The Flammer Dance Band comes from Oslo. That’s important to mention, because you don’t immediately hear it. They sound more like the second best Afrobeat band after Africa 70, at least. When Ghanaian legend »Funky Rob” Roy Raindorf decided a year or two ago to celebrate his newly inflamed fame and go on tour, he chose the Norwegians as his backing band. With good reason.

Could be hot

However, the seven-piece ensemble doesn’t just play songs, it also makes music itself. Two or three records with psychedelic, hypnotically grooving funk have been produced in recent years. The remarkable »Ginger« was released just this year.

In January and February 2025, the Flammer Dance Band will be touring south of the Kattegat. So here is a flaming call to go there and experience what is probably the best Afro-funk band in Europe live.
