The Global Express: Phoenix Afrobeat Orchestra – Pao!
The Phoenix Afrobeat Orchesta [PAO] release their first EP. PAO proudly carries the musical and social torch that was first lit by the powerful duo of Fela Kuti and Tony Allen, original inventors of the Afrobeat sound.

Background: Delicate Steve – This Is Steve 
Delicate Steve makes instrumental gems that glide with guitar melodies. Think Ratatat trading the club for a hammock on the beach or Tommy Guerrero’s younger slide playing brother.
Hear Steve in the background throughout YMB.
