Listen to Brooklyn’s Super Yamba Band, and you’ll find a unique blend of inspiration born of 70s/80s West-African Afrobeat and Psychedelic Funk bolstered by a well-attested aptitude when it comes to live performance.

Time Is Fire is a band that could only come out of Washington DC. Rooted in DC’s post-punk scene but reaching out to embrace rhythms from Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and beyond, the group summons a kaleidoscopic sound that knows no borders- a blast of radio distortion from a country that doesn’t exist.
