Kampala is set to come alive with the vibrant rhythms of the Caribbean as Talent Africa Group, in partnership with Abeeka Band, officially announces the Roots & Vibes Concert — a high-impact Afro-Caribbean music experience slated for Saturday, May 2, 2026.
Positioned as more than just a concert, Roots & Vibes is designed to be a bold cultural celebration blending reggae, Afro-roots, and dancehall into one immersive live showcase. The event aims to elevate Kampala’s standing as a premier regional hub for globally relevant Afro-Caribbean cultural experiences, reinforcing the city’s growing reputation as a destination for high-quality international-standard productions.

By merging pulsating island rhythms with Africa’s contemporary soundscape, the event promises to deliver an evening that is both electrifying and culturally resonant.
Headlining the night is Abeeka Band, widely regarded as East Africa’s most dynamic and electrifying boy band. The five-member ensemble — Pages, Kevin, Michael, Producer Allan, and Dr. Tre — has built a reputation for energetic stagecraft and genre-blending artistry. Their sound fuses Afro-pop, R&B, and contemporary influences, creating a musical identity that connects seamlessly with urban audiences while maintaining global appeal.
Industry observers note that Abeeka’s growing influence positions them not only as entertainers but as cultural ambassadors capable of bridging African and Caribbean musical traditions. Their presence at Roots & Vibes signals a deliberate effort to curate a show that speaks to both mainstream audiences and discerning music enthusiasts seeking authentic live performance.
In addition to the headlining act, the concert will feature several guest performers, further enriching the program and reinforcing its theme of cross-cultural collaboration.
