Billy Bao

Lagos Sessions

"Basque-based group Billy Bao travelled to the former Nigerian capital to record a four part ode to the city... These are sound collages, taking snippets of work from local sound artist Emeka Ogboh, former Fela sidesman Duro Ikujenyo and Afro jazz saxophonist Orlando Julius, and melding them coarsely with ambient backing... Billy Bao and co manage to capture the love, affection and unavoidable (unmistakeable) frustration that Lagos evokes." Lanre Bakare, The Wire "Lagos Sessions" featuring: Billy Bao, Ambido, Diana Bada, Duro Ikujenyo, Mark Ido, Oduyomi Isaiah Oluseye, Joel Isioma Okoh, Orlando Julius, Mendo, Emeka Ogboh. Presented in gatefold sleeve with liner notes by Kunle Tejuoso and Ed Emeka Keazor.
