About Nubiyan Twist
Nubiyan Twist are a London-based, genre-fluid musical collective orchestrated by guitarist/producer Tom Excell. Their expansive, eclectic music seamlessly melds soul, funk, jazz, hip-hop, reggae, Indian classical, gnawa, soukous, and electronic dance music. Ranging from ten to twelve members, the band includes three primary vocalists in Nubiya Brandon, saxophonist Nick Richards, and percussionist Pilo Adami, as well as a four-piece horn section, dubbed live electronics, and a large rhythm section that all serve to create powerful performances in intimate jazz clubs, on large dancefloors, and on festival stages. Their 2019 sophomore full-length, Jungle Run, featured guest spots by Afrobeat drum legend Tony Allen and Ethiopian jazzman Mulatu Astatke. The no less vibrant long-players Freedom Fables (2021), Find Your Flame (2024), and Chasing Shadows (2026) boasted contributions from the likes of Seun Kuti, Nile Rodgers, and Patrice Rushen.
