Kolonel Djafaar Biography
Kolonel Djafaar has built up a reputation across Belgium for their roof-raising live shows, reinterpreting the groove of Ethiopian jazz with a psych-rock edge, a mindblowing horn section, and a touch of Afrobeat. With their brand new LP "Getaway" for Batov Records, they have found their own path.
Having built a loyal local Antwerp following off of the success of their 2019 debut self released album, ‘Forgotten Kingdom’, and growing reputation for electrifying stage performances, Kolonel Djafaar achieved worldwide recognition in 2021 for the ‘Cold Heat’ EP on Batov Records, attracting praise from Music Is My Sanctuary (“triumphant), and support from Gilles Peterson and Gideon Coe on BBC 6 Radio Music, and DJs across Worldwide FM, Soho Radio, Le Mellotron, and KEXP.
In 2024, Kolonel Djafaar unveiled its second album, ‘Getaway’, their first for Batov Records, seamlessly blending Afrobeat, Ethio jazz, and psych rock, whilst showcasing the band's evolution over the past couple of years.
