Live in the Library Online: Movimientos presents: Bushbby | Swuni

Every Friday, join us for an online music showcase, streaming live on our YouTube, Facebook and Twitch!

Movimientos takes over our Live in the Library stage every 1st Friday of the month showcasing a range of styles from mutations of Reggaeton, RnB & Hip Hop alongside acoustic Soul, Cumbia, Jazz, Afro-Latin and future tropical electronic sounds.

Friday 2 April | Bushbby & Swuni (DJ set)

Bushbby & Swuni are a new London-based duo, two members of a wider collective of DJs hosting fundraiser events for Latin & Caribbean communities around the world.

Movimientos mainstay Bushbby illustrates the wonders of nature through her evocative, elemental spoken word, flowing to the backdrop of Swuni’s (one half of Village Cuts) electronic beats. The duo call upon Latin rhythms and the sublime soundscapes of the natural world to celebrate madre tierra and uplift her inhabitants.

Their first single Agua Viva was released by Movimientos as part of the Santuario fundraiser compilation.
