Caprichos de Apolo presents Sudan Archives + Shunaji
Concert of Sudan Archives in Barcelona - 25th November 2022
There are myths that transcend all perception of space-time and Sudan Archives is clear proof of this.
The violinist, singer, songwriter and producer Brittney Parks joins Caprichos de Apolo on the 25th of November, as part of her international Homecoming Tour.
Based in Los Angeles, Sudan Archive's will present her second album, "Natural Brown Prom Queen", released the 9th of September via Stones Throw Records and rated 9/10 by Pitchfork magazine.
This new work is about race, femininity and the fiercely loyal and loving relationships that are at the core of Sudan's life, and it appears as a new and unique way of incorporating her beginnings as a violinist across different musical genres.
As Sudan Archives – not even her own mother uses the real name – she combines exotic and refined R&B with hip-hop, folk, experimental electronic music and West African rhythms and melodies. We saw it on her first EPs, "Sudan Archives" (2017) and "Sink" (2018), and also on "Anthena" (2019), her critically lauded debut album.
For fans of Tirzah, serpentwithfeet, Sampa The Great, Jamila Woods, Kelsey Lu, Ibeyi, Frank Ocean, Solange.
Guest artist: Shunaji
Italian rapper, singer and producer Shunaji combines jazz-influenced hip-hop with funk, soul and other psychedelic flavors in an innovative musical style that has earned her recognition from the British Music Collection or Help Musicians MOBO awards.
Her Afrofuturistic songs that push the boundaries of convention have been acclaimed within the independent music scene in the UK and abroad and she has received multiple awards including Italia Music Export Supporto Showcase, PRS Open Fund and Help Musicians Do It Differently.
Shunaji's performance is supported by Liveurope, the European initiative co-founded by the Creative Europe programme of the EU that supports concert venues in their efforts to promote European emerging artists.

Caprichos de Apolo
Think of that musician that seems impossible to you that someday will come to play in Barcelona. Or think of that cult artist who doesn’t fit into any programming cycle. Or think about that special show of a large artist in small format. Well, all of this is Caprichos de Apolo.
