Orii Presents
Go back to the source and experience the harmony of community music-making with live performances and a jam session curated by the music collective.
Inspired by the Yoruba concept of Orii, which the group describes as the spark of collective consciousness or a shared soul, Orii brings musicians together to create and enjoy music in a collaborative setting.
Catch music-making alchemy in uplifting sessions with Phoebs, Mar!k and the Orii Jam house band, made up of Neue Grafik, Entek, Jaz Lee, Angie Prasanti, Christopher Tadiwanashe, NuAloe, Hillarynx and Solomon Kolakale.
And for the full Orii experience, we wrap up with a curated, spiritual jam session, giving you the chance to tap into the community-created heart and soul of the collective.
Plus, join us for a free after party with Orii Club in the Queen Elizabeth Hall Foyer following the event in the Purcell Room. Orii Club gives a new form to the energy of Orii’s bi-weekly London jam sessions, moving from live improvised nu-jazz sounds to electronic music.
