AFRICA OYE 2009

Africa Oye is the biggest free African music festival in the UK.  For the best part of 17 years, this festival has brought the best artists from all over Africa, The Caribbean and The Americas to Liverpool.

This year the event included the Reggae superstar Freddie McGregor from Jamaica. Oye was a pleasure to trade at, not only because our shop had a direct view of the stage, but also we had the chance to meet some amazing people. This is one festival that we would definitely like to return to.
A big thank you must be said to two very special customers, whom we hope to meet again at another event in the future. Nemonee (pictured below in a Sorazora original T-shirt) and her twin sister.
Hiromi and I very much enjoyed meeting you both and will keep a look out for you both at Oye 2010.
