Tic Tac continues to put Ghana music on the map, and on Sunday 21st August he performed at the Shoreditch festival, at Haggerston Park in Hackney, London.

A one day event celebrating all aspects of the African culture as part of Africa 05 who are in association with the BBC, is the biggest celebration of African culture ever organised in Britain. The Shoreditch Festival has already established itself as one of London’s most innovative community festivals.

Last year over 30,000 attended the event. Shoreditch Festival 2005 runs from 6 to 21 August and offers up a fantastic programme of events celebrating this year’s theme - Food for the Soul.

Throughout two weeks in August, parks, gardens, streets, historical buildings and extraordinary venues opened up in to showcase the work of contemporary artists, performers and entertainers with a mix of exciting events and experiences set to fuel the soul including music, theatre, dance, visual arts, performance, children’s events, walks, talks and parties in the park. Sunday was the climax of the festival.

Tic Tac delivered an explosive performance of African hip hop in his local dialect of Twi and English, alongside Afropean Hip-Hop fusioneers JJC & 419 Squad, and Congolese rumba stars Koko Kanyinda & Soukous Koumbele who will deliver their own brand of rumba, infectious soukous, and African funk with wild dancing and acrobatic conga.

This is the second Africa 05 event the musician has been part of. No wonder BBC Newsround recently came to Ghana to interview him as part of their African Lives season, which was screened in the UK last month.
