Dele Sosimi, the UK based Afrobeat ambassador, former band member of Fela Kuti’s Egypt 80 and co-founder with Femi Kuti of the Positive Force finally unleashes his full debut album with The Estuary 21 (masterminded by British musician Sam Duckworth, aka Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly) entitled The Confluence LP.

Having released The Confluence EP together early last year, Dele and Sam’s new record seeks pastures new exploring soul, jazz, r’n’b, funk and of course Afrobeat for an eccentric and life-affirming record brimming with feelings of freedom and possiblity.

Dele and Sam were introduced at Felabration 2012, the annual commemoration of the music of Fela Kuti in Lagos, Nigeria. Nearly ten years passed before the two musicians connected in Sam’s hometown of Southend-On-Sea (UK) in a post-lockdown creative boom, recording
the first EP over a burst of week-long sessions in 2021.

After the Confluence EP was released to much fanfare in early 2023, the two musicians realised that there was still plenty to put to tape, creativity was still oozing and thus the initial idea of a few tracks soon led to the idea of a fully-fledged album project.
