About Benin City
Benin City believe that dance is a form of protest. Joshua Idehen, Tom Leaper and Shanaz Dorsett make dance-pop birthed in London, where they met, flavoured with their many influences (from Stromae to Sylvan Esso to Christine And The Queens). Their second album, Last Night (Moshi Moshi), was an ode to the city's declining nightlife and the many stories that take place on the dancefloor. With support from the likes of Huw Stephens (BBC), John Kennedy (Radio X) and Tom Robinson, and a European support tour with Portugal. The Man under their belt, the Band acquired a diverse following of club-goers, indie lovers and pop fans alike. Setting topics like Windrush ('Hostiles’), identity ('What A Time') and cultural appropriation ('Get Your Own') against energetic beats, the trio steps into the new decade with new music that is as poignant as it is celebratory.
