Introducing the Big Ghana Band

chocolate + Big Ghana Band + fairtrade + Paolo Nutini + dance + football = feel good to me!

The percussion and clapping here are typical Kpanlogo music forms.
The guitar style is popularly known as the Yaa Amponsah Rhythm.


This film is shot in the capital Accra where my plane will be landing (2hrs away from Sega).
It starts off with an infamous Ghanaian handshake.
The Head is inspired by traditional Ghanaian wood carvings.
Tinny's a local favorite. So's the High Spirit Dance Crew.


An Afro-kitschy Flo Rida upgrade. Check out the side-kick dancers/back-up singers, so funny!
