Ghana Special: Kwashibu Area Band feat. Pat Thomas & Charles Amoah

2016 was the last time Pat Thomas visited Openlucht Theater Hertme, in 2025 he returns together with the Kwashibu Area Band & Charles Amoah!

This collaboration bridges the gap between classic highlife, Afro Funk, West African disco, and the precursor to the Afrobeats sound, featuring a unique meeting of legendary Ghanaian musicians. Performers from different generations: festival favorite Pat Thomas and Disco Highlife royalty Charles Amoah, perform alongside the Kwashibu Area Band. "A journey for all ages, colors, and styles, where everyone dances together!"
