Debo Band/Full Tang/DJ Andujar this Friday at the Iron Horse...Ticket Giveaway on Clandestino

After their first co-bill in Somerville's Johnny D's, Debo Band & Full Tang together again at the Iron Horse. Northampton, start your new year right with some heavy hitting African dance grooves. And as a special treat, DJ Andujar will join us and spin only the illest jamz. Founded by former members of the Afrobeat stars the Superpowers, Full Tang is a four piece world rock band with diverse African influences like Chimurenga music of Zimbabwe, Franconian Salsa of the Congo, and Highlife of Ghana and Nigeria. Debo is a psychedelic large ensemble-Ethio-funk explosion. Their lead vocalist can croon with the best of Ethiopian singers -- the group will transport you to 1970s Ethiopia. It's Debo Band's first time in Western Mass, so bring/tell a friend! Adv: $10 - Door: $13
