Biography
New York-based Antibalas (the name is Spanish for "bulletproof") were formed in 1998 by musicians from King Changó, the Soul Providers, and the Daktaris. Led by sax player Martin Perna (the sole constant member throughout the group's career), Antibalas (usually featuring a dozen or more musicians) were strongly influenced by Nigerian Afro-beat, as well as American R&B and Latin dance grooves. After gaining experience playing at poetry readings, loft parties, city parks, and other unconventional gigs, Antibalas started playing clubs around New York, hosting a regular weekend party called Africalia, giving them the opportunity to perform their particular style as they developed a reputation as America's leading interpreters of Afro-beat.
Liberation Afro Beat, Vol. 1 In 2000, the group released their debut album, Liberation Afrobeat, under the name Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra; the initial edition was released by the group, while the Ninja Tune label issued an expanded and re-sequenced version as Liberation Afro Beat, Vol. 1. Shortly afterwards, Antibalas issued Live in New York! Summer 1999, a limited-edition concert set documenting several of their Africalia shows. Their second studio effort, Talkatif, arrived via Ninja Tune in 2002, followed by extensive touring in America and abroad. After making a series of live albums available through Rockslide Records in 2003, Antibalas returned to the studio to cut their third LP, 2004's Who Is This America?, for Ropeadope Records. After 2006's Government Magic, issued by the Japanese P-Vine label, the group teamed with the respected indie imprint Anti- for their next long-player, 2007's Security.
Rat Race By this time, Antibalas had the honor of performing live with a number of musicians who had collaborated with Afro-beat icon Fela Kuti, and when the off-Broadway musical Fela! opened in New York in 2009, Antibalas were recruited as the house band, re-creating a number of Fela's classic compositions each night. The band followed the show when it moved to Broadway in 2009. In 2010, Antibalas cut an EP, Rat Race, which featured a cover of Bob Marley's song of the same name. After several rounds of touring, Antibalas cut a self-titled album that became their 2012 debut for Daptone Records (Gabriel Roth, one of Daptone's founders, produced the set; he had also played guitar with Antibalas in their early days). More international touring followed, including dates in Europe, Brazil, Mexico, and Australia, and the band made their American television debut in 2012 with an appearance on the chat show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. In 2017, after a long layoff from recording, Antibalas brought out their second album for Daptone, Where the Gods Are in Peace. The set included a three-part suite, "Tombstown," recorded in collaboration with the members of Zap Mama.
