Opposite People

Opposite People plays Afro-funk and world groove music. They enjoy playing outdoor and community events around Boston. The band was formed to play Friday Night Traffic Jam in Hyde Park in 2008, an outdoor evening music series. Initially the group played Fela, Antibalas, Budos and Daktaris jams and then expanded its repertoire to include 1960s reggae, Bollywood, 1970's Ethiopia and even a few originals. It's laid back, funky and improvisational.
