Arrival are an energetic 5-piece band from South London, blending afrobeat, reggae and jazz in their original music, as well as a choice mix of classic covers. <\/p>\n

Improvisation and groove is key to every Arrival gig and each performance is different and unique. The band formed as a group of great friends, Devin on Trumpet, Natai on Tenor Sax, Pixie on Keys, Mahli on bass and Oscar on Drums. <\/p>\n

Their love for music spans far and wide, being very much inspired by the likes of Fela Kuti, Idris Muhammed, Ebo Taylor and 70s Reggae, and we always create and play fantastic music together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
