Recorded live at Real World Studios to capture the spirit of JuJu's ecstatic, trance-like performances on stage— channelling hypnotic rhythms from traditional Africa, leftfield jazz and the wilder end of rock and showcasing the unique strengths of new band members Dave Smith and Billy Fuller.
Tell No Lies is the new sound of Justin Adams & Juldeh Camara. The sound of a nation with no borders, a place that needs no passport, no visa. This is where the deep roots of African music nourish the raw electric groove of rock and roll, where Gnawa spirit rhythms come up against Chicago distortion, where snaky N’awlins rhythm has a West London howl, and a Sahel Wail.
Yousra discusses her creative processes with Derya Yildirim, Hasan Nakhleh, Merve Erdem.
