Highlife w/ Mim Suleiman (Tanzania / Running Back Records)
An amazing live performer, Mim has been rocking crowds at various festivals this summer including Glastonbury and Womad..
It's a bit of a coup for... her to play at somewhere so intimate as La Cheetah, so expect as full-on a live performance as any you'll witness this year! She'll be bringing live percussion and future afrobeats via collaborator Chris Fingaz, as well as her amazing singing voice across three languages English, Fula and Swahili.
Following September's party with homegrown upstart Bamboo Palace, we've reached further afield with our next guest, Mim Suleiman. Born in Tanzania/Zanzibar, Mim came to our attention via her Maurice Fulton (DFA / Output / Mu / sylops etc) produced album - 'Tungi' - earlier this year.
