Music

London-born, Nigeria-raised Michael Olatuja brings his spectacular blend of West-African Afrobeats and jazz to the BAMcafé Live stage for a night of refined groove. Olatuja, backed by an all-star string orchestra, scales the fretboard fast and with virtuosic precision, paying homage to the jazz greats while creating something all his own. After collaborating with such artists as Diana Ross, Spike Lee, Phil Collins, and Stevie Wonder, it’s no surprise Michael Olatuja is hailed as one of the most inventive and in-demand bassists in New York City.
