Book online

"The type of record that should be blasted over a sun-drenched festival crowd.”
Clash

“Nubiyan Twist take a leap out of the densely packed crowd of UK jazz with Freedom Fables, a summation of the group's talent that sees them elevated into the highest tier of their cohort.”
Loud And Quiet 8/10

“A cauldron of energy that bubbles with invention. Exhilarating stuff.”
Record Collector

"A free-flowing assemblage of jazz, soul, hip hop and diasporic styles."
Mojo

"If I Know sparks with Afrobeat and highlife rhythms… 6 minutes of gold.”
Evening Standard

"If I Know…the perfect track to vibe around your makeshift living room dancefloor with a homemade margarita."
Snack magazine

"A melting pot of soul, jazz and afro-groove with incomparable musicality, Freedom Fables will undoubtedly boost Nubiyan Twist and consolidate its position as one of the best British soul collectives of the current generation" Pan African Music Leeds is generous in terms of music. Proof here in this collective that marries Afro-jazz and neo-soul”
Rolling Stone, France.
