Known as the \u201cGolden Voice Of Africa\u201d, 72 year-old Ghanaian highlife legend Pat Thomas is back with a new studio album. This Autumn, following 2015’s widely acclaimed self-titled debut, Pat Thomas & Kwashibu Area Band<\/a> will release their second record through Strut Records<\/a>. Entitled Obiaa!<\/em>, which means \u2018Everybody!\u2019, the album was produced by Kwame Yeboah and Ben Abarbanel-Wolff from Kwashibu Area Band in Berlin.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the album’s release, we can already hear a wonderful taste off it with single ‘Onfa Nkosi Hwee’, a track that “warns that stubborness and arrogance lead to dead ends”, as the press release describes, adding: “If you are stubborn, fumbling and messing things up, it won\u2019t get you anywhere. Boasting, showing off and bragging on social media is ultimately pointless and has no value.”
\nTake a listen to ‘Onfa Nkosi Hwee’ now.<\/p>\n
