Info
On December 16, 2026, Sekou brings his voice-first soul-pop to Manchester Academy for a night built around tight songs, big emotions, and the kind of phrasing that comes straight from gospel and R&B.
Born in Leicester and sharpened in London, Sekou moves between ballads and mid-tempos where his deep, open tone does most of the talking. You can hear the choir-bred harmonies in the backing vocals, a light funk pulse in the grooves, and a modern pop finish in the production, without ever losing that raw, human core. After being spotted young through cover clips, he turned the buzz into real stages, from early gigs to festival slots like Glastonbury, plus support runs that helped him level up fast. With the 2023 EP Out of Mind and a rising profile on the UK scene, this show is a chance to catch an artist stretching soul songwriting into something current, intimate, and made for a room like this.
