Sun Hop Fat @ The Crazy Horse Saloon (Nevada City, CA) April 21, 2023

The raw power, seductive appeal and relentless grooves of Ethiopian dance music is something that must be experienced live to truly be grasped. For over the last decade Sun Hop Fat has been Nor Cal’s premiere vehicle in bringing Ethiopia’s “golden era” back to life for the pleasure of audiences. Relentless afro-beats and irresistible jazz stylings are at the core of this phenomenon. Horns soar over an ocean of rhythm and soaring melodies. The primal growl of baritone sax is a serpentine force, coaxing listeners down the rabbit hole. These songs will speak to your soul and do things to your body that may not be legal in certain states. Brace for impact with a “steady wall of extraordinary, moving sound and beats.” (San Francisco Examiner)
