Highlife

Description

The album *The Highlife* is a tribute to the Ghanaian highlife music tradition, which stands out with its unique sound, featuring a guitar playing style characterized by distinctive finger-picking, minimalist yet catchy basslines, percussive keyboard motifs, soulful melodies played by the brass section, and a strong emphasis on rhythm. The album highlights legends of the genre: Pat Thomas, Gyedu-Blay Ambolley, and Koo Nimo. On this album, Peter Somuah blends highlife with jazz, creating a style he calls "jazz highlife." He also conveys messages of social justice, healing, and gratitude, all while remaining engaging and danceable.
