Oy Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

First the world drew closer together, and then the borders were raised high again—this is the bad news. The good news is that OY refuse to play along. Singer/keyboardist Joy Frempong and producer/drummer Melodydreamer have been making music across all musical, linguistic and cultural boundaries for a decade. The Berlin-based duo with roots in Ghana and Switzerland thrill audiences on stages around the world at festivals such as Eurockéenes in France, Rec Beat in Brazil, or clubs in downtown Cairo and New York. Most recently, they toured Europe in 2022 supporting Colombian band Bomba Estéreo. The title of their next album "World Wide We" (release 23.03.03) came quite naturally. Polyglot negotiations of political and personal themes are musically woven into catchy songs. From Electronica Afrobeat Avant-Pop to Hip-Hop, Trap and Jazz - the music of OY is more versatile and unified, stylistically more open and independent than ever. "World Wide We" is an open invitation to dance all clichés into the ground at the duo's acclaimed concerts.
