Jembaa Groove Live on KEXP

Jembaa Groove took over the KEXP studio on October 3, 2025, for raw live takes of “Dabia” and “Namo.” Fronted by Eric Owusu (vocals, percussion) and led by bassist Yannick Nolting, the sextet—joined by Babatunde Agonglo (guitar), Peter Somuah (trumpet), Szabolcs Bognar (keys) and Nir Sabag (drums)—laid down an irresistible groove under host Lace Cadence.

Behind the scenes, Kevin Suggs engineered, Fabio Buemi mixed and Julian Martlew mastered, while a five-camera team and editor Jim Beckmann captured every beat. Dive deeper at jembaamusic.com or kexp.org—and don’t miss the perks by joining their YouTube channel!
