The band always deliver a memorable, limb-loosening show and will also be celebrating the release of their fine new album ‘Bomoko’. They won the UK LUKAS AWARDS TROPICAL ACT OF THE YEAR 2017 and judging by their last set at Mambista they must be in the running for the 2022 award. Based in London, the band have taken the UK by storm, wowing festivals and the club circuit alike with their blistering grooves and outlandish dance moves. Mambista is the Latin, African and Jazz Dance Party and Grupo Lokito are a perfect fit. The soundtrack for The Latin, African and Jazz Dance Party will be provided by DJ Gerry Lyseight (ex-GLR/BBC London, Mambo Inn, Mango Landin’) spinning The Patented Mambista Mash Up!
