๐ŸŒบ Tonight from 10PM // THE SEBEN BROTHERS ๐ŸŒบ Tickets $20 on the door

Formed in 2016 in Melbourne/Naarm, The Seben Brothers bring the vibrant spirit of Central Africaโ€™s golden musical era to Australia. With roots in the Congo, Mozambique, and Kenya, the group blends the infectious rhythms of 1960s and โ€™70s Congolese rumba and soukous with the fresh, contemporary sounds of their adopted home. ๐ŸŽธ

At the heart of The Seben Brothersโ€™ sound lies Congolese rumba, a genre that pulses with life. Recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (2021), rumba combines traditional Congolese rhythms with Cuban influences to create a style defined by soaring, intricate guitar melodies, rich vocal harmonies, and irresistible dance grooves.๐Ÿ’ƒ

The Seben Brothers bring the best of live music to Oussou. Come for vibes, music and dance like you've never seen before! ๐Ÿ™
