No foot stayed still when The
Scorpios played live on A World in London! Their infectious Sudanese grooves,
funky b-lines & horn section, plus Arabic rhythms had us all
bursting to dance, sway, and swing! Lead vocals by Regia Ishag and
Osman Babo were mesmerising & spot on, singing mostly uplifting
heritage songs from their roots in Sudan. They may have been forced
to flee their homeland but in their quest to find safety and freedom
they landed in London to colllect an equally talented &
international team around them that includes Mimi Kobayashi from Japan on keys,
Jamaican bass don Ronnie Maxwell, Polish trumpeter Dawid Frydryk, saxophone from improv pioneer Sue Lynch, Adam
Bulewski on guitar, IyatraQuartet's Will Roberts on drums,
and fellow Sudanese musician Osman Mohammed on darbuka!
