ORDER SIGNED 7″ PICTURE SLEEVE VINYL HERE! (only 75 available):

Multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer Adam Gibbons (aka Lack of Afro) is back in some style with ‘Back To The Day’, a beautifully produced summer sizzler crammed full of infectious hooks, top musicianship and most importantly, vibe by the bucketload! Taking a nod from classic material by artists such as The Jackson 5, Earth Wind & Fire (and more recently Vulfpeck), ‘Back To The Day’ is Lack of Afro doing what he does best and then some – blending the old and new with big drums and heavy percussion to come up with a crossover classic that’s entirely his own, whilst all the while developing his abilities as a songwriter.

ORDER HERE!

Pierce Brosnan, Guy Pearce & Lack of Afro!

Adam Gibbons — Mon, 19 Feb 2018 14:51:10 +0000

Delighted to have two tracks featured in ‘Spinning Man’, the new film starring Pierce Brosnan, Guy Pearce & Minnie Driver. I’ve been a fan of all three actors for a very long time, so it’s extra special!

‘I Got The Rhythm’ & ‘Hello Baby’ both make an appearance!

Live Lack of Afro shows incoming!

Adam Gibbons — Mon, 15 Jan 2018 11:13:13 +0000

It gives me great pleasure to announce that I’ll be putting the Lack of Afro live band together again for a series of live shows this April & May in support of the new album (which is nearly finished!). After being in the studio for what seems like ages, I’m really excited to get out there and play live again!

If you’re a promoter (or know someone who is), please get in touch with Paul at The Unity Agency here to have us come and rock the party! See you at a show soon….Adam X
