Amsterdam Faya Allstars!
A new and colourful band of musicians in which the unique expertise and musical background of every member is brought on the table. The mixture of this illustrious sextet leaves no musical style unaffected…on the contrary: JamaicanJazz is being mashed with Jamaican ska, latin, reggae, speedy surf-parts and ragged rock. To sum up: Amsterdam Faya Allstars is as colorful as the city is nowerdays. What makes this band more unique is that after a few songs, musicians in the audience can join the band at the spot. They can
come up stage and show what they can. The band supports this musician and make sure that the show will be even more colorful! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4upXWSPwxcU

After 1 year the band did their first show, Paradiso asked them to play on the mean stage at Prime Time this summer!!! They also played at, Tivoly, Supermarkt, Jazz-festivals, Reggae-festivals, other festivals while the music fits in everywhere and it still has itʼs own unique sound.
