To celebrate the release of Ash, Ibeyi are continuing their global tour into 2018 with a French and European tour in March before returning to North America this April for their second appearance at Coachella and headline shows in San Francisco, San Diego and Austin, TX. They have also just announced festival appearances including Primavera Sound, Barcelona (June 1st), We Love Green, Paris (June 2nd).
As 2017 came to an end, Ibeyi’s sophomore album Ash was notably included in Pitchfork, NPR, Rolling Stone, FADER, Esquire, Time Out and Remezcla’s “Best of 2017” year-end lists. With Pitchfork explaining, “To hear Ibeyi’s second LP, Ash—minimalistic arrangements of modern jazz, soul, and hip-hop elegantly woven with West African rhythms—is to receive energy carrying the weight of history….Its very existence is proof of a culture that refused to be suppressed, and its beauty a testament to the pain that made it possible.”
