GAFFER HOUSE PARTY
We’ve finally recovered from our first GAFFER house party! We threw it back to the golden era of old-school get-togethers as we took over Soho’s newest spot House Party
Native city Lagos will always be home for Eazi, but his story is very much an international one. He studied as a teenager in the Ghanaian capital of Accra, where his college party promotions led him to eventually making music himself and becoming Mr Eazi. Banku, his self-coined fusion of Ghanaian and Nigerian musical influences, has taken Eazi far beyond just those two nations closest to his heart, finding support not just in countries with large African diaspora, including here in the UK, but also places as far as Chile, who remarkably rank among the biggest supporters of Eazi’s music.
Global appeal and success is very much on the agenda for Mr Eazi, and he’s hoping to set many others on their way there too. Shortly after the GAFFER shoot, 30 musicians are announced as the second class of inductees into emPawa, the talent incubator programme that Eazi and a network of fellow African creatives are involved in to help exciting artists develop self-sustaining careers. It’s a project that Eazi could speak on for hours, but in the slightly less time we have with him he discusses his vision for emPawa, the reach of his own music as well as some of those warm footballing memories…

We brought the South Africa heat to London this March and it was nothing short of a SPECTACLE. We rounded up an all-star lineup of the female powerhouses behind Amapiano to take us to the streets of SA. Our biggest and best one yet…
From West Africa to the West End... Another GAFFER after party for a sold out show. This time round, we opened the doors of Windmill, Soho, to the global Afro-soul sensation, Ayra Starr, following her first ever headline show in London.
We took our 'Don't Tell The GAFFER' nights to a whole new level. Our biggest party to date did not miss. GAFFER lit up KOKO and it didn’t matter where you were in the building, the atmosphere was electric from the stage to the balconies.
