Experience The Acoustic Sessions Ghana

Industry News Experience The Acoustic Sessions Ghana
JUN 22, 2013 LISTEN

Do you want to hear stripped down Ghanaian musical talent? The Acoustic Sessions Ghana is just that. Six young Ghanaian performers, including two incredible guitarists have formed a collective to bring you chilled out sessions of African/Western fusion music.

One of 2012's Vodafone Icons winners (Noble Nii Nortey) has collaborated with some of his fellow Icons runners up to provide Ghana with a fresh new acoustic sound. He also selected musicians who have not appeared on the Icons platform and he continues to expand the Acoustic Sessions talent pool with surprise guest vocalists.

The live music set entertains for hours, journeying through world music genres and marrying unique renditions of popular tracks with their own original song writing. Ghanaian music genres are also represented with passion and they promise to continually surprise you with their very own versions of well-known local songs.


Their Ghanaian tour has begun at Afrikiko every Monday and will expand nationally from August this year. Talented vocalists and guitarists from Takoradi, Kumasi Tamale and Cape Coast are being asked to contact the Acoustic Sessions via Facebook to collaborate as guest performers for up and coming concerts.

Their first performance at Afrikiko last Monday was a true success. Kojo Antwi surprised the Acoustic Sessions by appearing in the audience just as the group were performing their version of one of Kojo Antwis many hits. They played into the night interacting with the crowd and inviting talented audience members to step up and jam with them on stage.

The Acoustic Sessions would like to thank everyone who is supporting them including the manager of Delifrance Osu who gifted the whole group with a complimentary lunch. They would also like to invite all of Accra's music lovers down to Afrikiko on Monday evenings to take a seat at a candle lit table in the relaxing open air garden area for a perfect start to the week. It's free entry and all are welcome.

To keep up to date you can visit the Facebook page (www.facebook.com/TheAcousticSessionGhana) and you can even make requests for the group to rehearse and dedicate to you (or someone special) during their set.


It's 'back to basics' like you have never seen it before so don't miss out. Come along and enjoy yourself.
