Last year, MEVA HOGBE 2024 lit the stage with spirit, rhythm, and soul.

This year, we return even bigger with the MEVA HOGBE Experience 2025: concert, culture, tradition, art and community in one.
But first, let’s rewind to some highlights from 2024…

More than anything else these moments were golden
Drenched in harmony & rhythm
We let ourselves get carried away into the music
Experiences like this makes the MEVA HOGBE Concert an occasion to behold.
To be at the Hogbetsotso Festival, is to be at the MEVA HOGBE Concert 2025.

Five years ago I conceptualized this idea.
Last year we began this historic idea.
This year the wrap ups are being made!

In processions and festivals, sound functions as a medium of transformation, guiding.. (1/3)

BODZO BADZAAA

Could sound not be more than vibration?
An invocation, a trembling vessel filled with ancestors?

In my Art practice, processional work re-inscribes art into civic life, making sound a social architecture where movements, spiritual rituals like libation and (1/2)

A ritual procession across KNUST, blending Anlo-Eʋe & Asante traditions through fire, libation, sculpture, & sound.
