‘Timbuktu’ by Children of Adam Band

Philadelphia-based outfit Children of Adam Band is a collection of award-winning musicians that celebrate the diversity of humanity. The riveting 16 member ensemble prides themselves on creating their original “PMB” (Positive Message Bearing) music made up of an ever-evolving fusion of new world music, R&B, jazz, funk, African, Latin and Middle Eastern sounds with hints of American Soul.

The lyrics of their music are predominantly in English and various African dialects as well as other languages. In 2019 they dropped their introduction with their debut album, aptly called PMB which was released to critical acclaim and snapped up the award for Top World Music Band in Philadelphia.

Among their messages of optimism and positivity, they also touch on social issues. With their live performances they create mesmerising spectacles of music which incorporates video imagery and a spectacular female whirling dervish dancer.

Now they bring us their latest release with the new album Timbuktu: The Human Journey, a truly joyous work full of grooving rhythms and upbeat composition. With 18 tracks on the record, they create an epic listening experience with their exceptional musicianship and writing abilities.
