The ecstatic audience could not help but swing their bodies, snap their fingers and nod their heads to the good music from the band.

Also performing are Ga music ensemble Dromo Naa and ‘Gyata Bi’ singer Adane.
The Accra Music Expo would be a precursor to Citi FM’s Music of Ghanaian Origin (MOGO) which takes place on March 23, 2019 at the National Theatre.
It is a special event focused on celebrating and promoting indigenous Ga music.
This is part of Citi FM’s annual Heritage Month programme which is held in March to promote the Ghanaian heritage and culture.
The concert is organised by Citi FM and Citi TV in collaboration with the Accra Metropolitan Assembly.
