Otto and The Mutapa Calling at Global Beats Club

Last night my band Otto and The Mutapa Calling had the immense pleasure of performing at our first ever Global Beats Club hosted at Hootananny in Brixton. We were co support with Bamako Overground, with Afrikan Boy headlining the night.

Here are a few pictures from our night at Hootananny.
