“Seeing Ibeyi live was chills-inducing, charming and healing” - The Stranger
Thursday, March 1, 2018 - Ibeyi have kicked off 2018 with a handful of stunning live performances for NPR’s Tiny Deskseries, Live From Here with Chris Thile and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Last night Ibeyi was joined by the Harlem Gospel Choir and Isaiah Barr of Onyx Collective for a moving performance of their empowering single “Deathless,” which fittingly aired on the last day of Black History Month. The song is a single off of Ibeyi’s sophomore album Ash (out now on XL Recordings) and was written by Lisa-Kaindé Díaz in the wake of an experience in which the police racially profiled her. “I was wrote Deathless as an anthem for everybody,” Lisa-Kaindé says, “for every minority. For everybody that feels that they are nothing, that feels small, that feels not cared about and I want them to listen to our song and for three minutes feel large, powerful, deathless.”

To celebrate the release of Ash, Ibeyi are continuing their global tour in 2018 with a French and European tour in March before returning to North America this April for their second appearance at Coachella and headline shows in San Francisco, San Diego and Austin, TX. They have also just announced that they’ll be joining David Byrne this August on his U.S. tour. More information on dates here.
"Ibeyi are musical and spiritual guides for the millennial generation." - Miami Herald
As 2017 came to an end, Ibeyi’s sophomore album Ash was notably included in Pitchfork, NPR, Rolling Stone, FADER, Esquire, Time Out and Remezcla’s “Best of 2017” year-end lists. With Pitchfork explaining, “To hear Ibeyi’s second LP, Ash—minimalistic arrangements of modern jazz, soul, and hip-hop elegantly woven with West African rhythms—is to receive energy carrying the weight of history….Its very existence is proof of a culture that refused to be suppressed, and its beauty a testament to the pain that made it possible.”
