Nizlopi
Make It Happen
The number one selling folk hip-hop duo from the UK. Their music is raw, real English acoustic songwriting at its best, these guys are notorious for their superb and dynamic live performance as well.
The unique mix of Luke Concannon’s soulful vocals and John James Parker’s beatboxing and double bass mastery is a euphoric sound that must be heard to be believed and this new material perfectly reflects the bands achingly personal and consciously political approach to songwriting.
“intense, angular and beautiful” Colin Murray BBC Radio 1
In their own words “We want to celebrate the music, creativity, activism and human spirit that is here. The spirit that embraces multiculturalism and protests war, the spirit that will tackle climate change, the spirit that gets up and dances, and the spirit that inspires us to rise up from our slumber and start building the world we want to see. Thats why we stay on our own family run Independent Record label - so we have the freedom to tell it like it is!”
This is a record saying: Lets get going, there’s so much to do, why aren't we doing it? It's about the joy of beginning a love affair, taking a risk and hoping in an uncertain world”. Something Nizlopi are not only very used to, but very good at too.
“monstrously melodic… absolutely mesmerising” musicweek
Recorded straight to tape at Brixton’s Dairy studio with Producer Phill Brown (of Island Records fame) at the helm, this fresh collection of songs, featuring inspiring collaborations and firmly rooted in the band’s rich experience of playing live, signals the return of the musical revolution that is Nizlopi; masterfully transcending genres with soulful dexterity like never before.
