Toki-O Nights: Powered by Technics (Mari Kimura)

A night of R&B, soul, funk, gospel and reggae presented as Toki-O Nights, powered by Technics, with Mari Kimura, at Archive & Myth in London's West End.

Toki-O Nights: Powered by Technics places Mari Kimura at the centre of an evening drawing on R&B, soul, funk, gospel and reggae. The genres are brought together in one bill, so the programme moves between groove-led dance music, vocal-driven soul and gospel, and the offbeat rhythms of reggae. Technics is named in the title alongside the artist.

Archive & Myth is a concert venue at Hippodrome Casino on Cranbourn Street, in the West End. The night suits anyone wanting to hear these styles in a single evening, and offers a broad route through several related Black music traditions rather than a single genre.

The event is part of a visit to London, and its title and genre give a clear sense of what to expect: a mix of contemporary and classic styles, presented under one name for the evening.
