The Amsterdam band Koffie serves a fresh mix of afrobeat, jazz and seventies funk. Remaining seated is no option during the shows of this charismatic group of young musicians. The seven piece band creates a sequel to Nigerian Afrobeat. Inspired by this African style Koffie plays endless beats with whipping improvisations.

In the family concert series Groove Beest you will discover why some music makes you want to tap your foot to the beat or jump up and start dancing. Together with MC Groove Beest and the band members you will feel the groove. Sitting still is not an option; so jump, dance and clap along and unleash your inner beast. Get in the mood with this video.
