AfroHiLife: A Rhythmic Journey of Global Grooves

Born from the vibrant cultural mosaic of Santa Cruz, AfroHiLife is a spellbinding ensemble that fuses the pulsating energy of Soukous and Afro-Funk with the smooth, melodic textures of Tropical Ballads, HiLife, Afro-Reggae, and Afro-Beat. These musicians craft hypnotic rhythms designed to make you move—whether you're swaying gently to a sunset groove or dancing wildly to frenetic, guitar-driven beats.

Founded by Elie Mabanza on guitar and vocals, Renato on drums and vocals, Mbor Faye on djembe/percussion, and Rhan Wilson on bass, AfroHiLife delivers a powerful live experience!
