Teddy Osei, a revered saxophonist and founding member of Osibisa, passed away on January 14, 2025, at age 88.

Born in Kumasi, he moved to London in 1962 to study music before forming Osibisa in 1969.

The band’s unique sound revolutionized African music on the international stage.

Tonight’s event offers fans in the Ashanti Region a final chance to celebrate his extraordinary musical journey before his burial on April 5.
