Our history
It started with a generator that failed
Forty minutes before a ceremony on a hillside in Aburi, in 2013. Everything since is a consequence of what we did in the next forty.
Our history
Twelve years, told properly
Including the year there was no work at all, because leaving it out would make the rest of this less believable.
One marquee and a wedding in Aburi
Afia Boateng left a hotel events desk with a marquee bought on credit and a borrowed PA. The generator failed forty minutes before the ceremony; the rig went up the hill by hand and the couple never knew. Eleven more weddings followed that year.
We stopped subcontracting the sound
After a third supplier turned up with the wrong desk we bought our own and hired Nii Armah to run it. It was the most expensive decision of the first five years and the reason everything since has been possible.
The first eight-hundred-seat conference
A bank asked us to run a launch we were plainly too small for, and we said yes. Three camera positions, a live feed and a minister on the bill taught us more about cue sheets than the previous four years together.
The roster began
Kojo Mensah came off the road and started signing acts instead of touring with them. Six bands in the first year, thirty by 2024 — highlife, gospel, jazz and afrobeats, all of them people we have mixed ourselves.
Eighteen months of nothing
Every event in the country was cancelled inside a fortnight. We kept all twenty-four staff on part pay by taking the trucks out as a hire company and rebuilt the stock with the difference. Nobody left.
Three stages and four thousand people
Our first festival build: twenty-two acts over two days on a site with no power in it. It is still the hardest thing on the portfolio and the one every new producer is walked through in their first week.
About ninety a year, and a limit
Twenty-four full-time staff, four producers and a cap on the calendar. We turn down more work than we take, which is the only version of this business we are interested in running.

Adjoa & Kwabena Sarpong
They ran our traditional rites in Kumasi on the Friday and the white wedding in Accra on the Saturday, and I did not make a single phone call on either day. The band they found us is still the thing our guests talk about.
