The group took home a Grammis Award for Best Jazz Album in 2018 for the album The Reason Why vol. 3.

Goran Kajfeš Subtropic Arkestra is a mixture of nations, musical styles and eras, with musical influences ranging from Turkey and Nigeria to Brazil. At Konserthuset Stockholm, Subtropic Arkestra continues to explore new horizons with guest-performer Avin Omar.

Ebo Krdum is from Darfur, western Sudan, but his warm, captivating music represents Darfur, Sudan and the entire African continent. Ebo is a self-taught guitarist, songwriter, composer, singer, actor and activist. The style is blended, but heavily focused on Afro-blues, storytelling, Afro-soul and Afro-beat. Justice, peace, love, compassion, gender equality and joy are clear themes of Ebo’s inviting music.
